Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

The next day, above the court

“Dear friends, please be safe. Do you have anything important to report?”

Ying Zheng smiled and waved to the courtiers below.

“Your Majesty, since that fire drill, the four fire-fighting measures of open fire, fire suppression, fire prevention, and fire extinguishing put forward by Prince Fusu have been well implemented throughout the country. The frequency of fires in our Daqin has significantly increased. decline”

“And all over the country, water hose trucks have been replaced by steam fire trucks. In places with a high probability of fire, such as counties with grain depots or cotton factories, three to five trucks are usually equipped.”

“Especially at our firearms training ground in Daqin, due to the huge power of firearms and the large number of equipment, a steam fire truck is specially equipped to stand by and ready at any time.”

“Places with a low probability of fires are equipped with at least one steam fire truck. With such careful fire prevention measures, Daqin has achieved zero fire casualties for the first time, and the proportion of property losses has dropped to a new high in history.”

“It can be said that we, the Qin Dynasty, no longer have to be afraid of disasters like fire, which we once feared like a tiger and turned pale when talking about it. The people also praise His Majesty and His Royal Highness Prince Fusu at home and support them to the extreme.”

The minister ordered Li Si to come out and report

“Well, this is the blessing of the Qin Dynasty and the people of the Qin Dynasty. All of this is thanks to Fusu. If it weren’t for your suggestions and the magical steam fire truck, the fire risk would still be threatening the land of the Qin Dynasty.”

Ying Zheng sighed.

It turns out that fires have always been the disaster that troubles Da Qin the most. It’s okay in winter. Due to the severe cold weather, fires don’t happen much. Even if they happen, they can’t spread and cause less damage.

But it ‘s less destructive. In summer, the scorching heat and dry weather make fires not only easy to occur, but also burn very quickly once they occur, posing a great threat to people’s lives and property. But as Fusu becomes more popular

, With the introduction of advanced fire protection concepts and the upgrading of advanced technology, fire, something that was once feared by people, has become no longer scary. People finally no longer have to worry about it. They can see that under their own rule, fire is no longer a fear. , the people lived and worked in peace and contentment and were protected from the fire. As a wise king, the First Emperor was naturally full of joy. 837

“My father is ridiculously complimentary. I am too stupid to accept the full prize. These are just my imagination while lying under a tree one day. In the final analysis, they are nothing more than luck.”

Fusu said humbly.

Hearing this, all the ministers in the court had strange expressions.

This humble statement is too outrageous. If even you are called stupid, then what are we? Dead people. ?

Besides, you were sitting under that tree that day. We also want to try it tomorrow to see if any wonderful ideas really come to mind.

“By the way, is there any movement in the Western Region?”

Ying Zheng asked

“Your Majesty, Scipio, the supreme consul of Rome, has significantly improved his political status in the Roman government since he proposed to the Qin Dynasty. Therefore, he promulgated a series of legal systems imitating the Qin Dynasty and implemented various laws in Rome. Under the New Deal, with such drastic reforms, the Roman economy has gradually shown signs of recovery.”

Meng Yi said

“The Romans were good at learning and applying them now. Seeing that these legal systems had achieved good results in the Qin Dynasty, they copied them. However, if Rome really became strong because of this, it would affect our future annexation. Planning creates some obstacles.”

Ying Zheng was slightly worried.

After all, the reason why Qin was able to rise so quickly was that, in addition to the advanced technological tools created by Fusu, these legal systems that benefited the country and the people also played a large role.

And now Xibei Ah followed the example of Great Qin in implementing the same legal policies, which made Ying Zheng somewhat worried that Rome would rise too quickly and become a stumbling block for Great Qin.

After all, in order to achieve Qin’s goal of conquering the world, annexing Rome was an indispensable step for Great Qin. It can even be said to be a very important step.

Because as long as it annexes Rome, Great Qin will be able to directly target Carthage and take everything in Rome and Carthage into its pocket. Great Qin will be able to pass through these two Western Regions to the Western Regions. It radiates influence to other places, and then incorporates the entire Western Region into the territory of the Qin Dynasty.

Therefore, if it encounters obstacles when annexing Rome, it will be difficult to continue with the next steps.

“Concerning this point, my father can rest assured that when I proposed the New Deal system, I had already considered this point. Therefore, the legal systems proposed by I are most in line with the national conditions of our country, Qin.”

“Scipio imitated these legal systems of mine in Rome and vigorously promoted and implemented them. There may be some results at first, but as time goes by, he will find that the decline of Rome is simply not enough to support my laws. Enforcement of the legal system”

“In the end, painting a tiger will not turn against a dog. Therefore, my father, you don’t have to worry about Rome becoming stronger due to these reforms, thus hindering my Great Qin’s plan to annex Rome in the future. Fusu said with a smile.

In fact, there is no such thing as a good or bad legal system, only whether it is suitable or not.

Just like Scipio followed the Qin Dynasty in establishing official schools, his purpose was obvious, which was to improve education through education. The reform of the system fundamentally solved the dilemma of Rome having no one available for internal affairs and cultivated more talents for Rome.

However, he ignored that, attracted by Da Qin’s generous salary and advanced scientific and technological knowledge, almost all the talents in the world are now They were concentrated in Da Qin, but they only had three or two big cats and kittens left in Rome, otherwise they would not have no available talents.

Therefore, even if Rome established an official school, who would be able to give lectures to the numerous students? It’s not just the old and decadent group of academics.

It’s almost impossible to expect these old-fashioned people to come up with new scientific and technological knowledge. The only things these old academics can teach are those passed down from their ancestors. The old knowledge is almost chewed up in their stomachs.

However, even if this backward and conservative knowledge is popularized among the masses, what use will it be? It will still look like the old one and cannot change the current situation of Rome at all..

In other words, Scipio imitated the official school founded by the Qin Dynasty, and just asked the Roman students to study in a different place. In essence, there is no difference from before.

And doing so is just a waste of people and money, and nothing else. role.

Especially Scipio did what the Qin Dynasty did. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In order to improve the physical fitness of the Romans, they not only provided milk, eggs and other nutritional guarantees for infants, young children and pregnant women , and nutritional supplements were also provided to teenagers and children.

As a result, the Roman people were naturally laughing and grateful for the country’s provision, but this was tantamount to a huge pressure on Rome’s finances.

You know, Milk and eggs were expensive in this era. Even if there were few Romans, this was definitely a huge expense.

When it was first implemented, Rome had just abolished the tax exemption law for nobles, so it relied on those large and small The taxes paid by the small nobles for the first time were a large amount of financial revenue. Rome could barely support it at the beginning.

But as time went by, the taxes Rome was able to collect from those nobles increased. will inevitably become less and less[]

After all, those nobles are all very smart and would not really let others slaughter them like domestic pigs.

In the past, as Roman (baci) nobles, they had tax-free rights. Therefore, those nobles naturally developed vigorously in business and focused all their careers on this in order to make more huge profits.

But since Scipio promulgated a new code that abolished the tax-free rights of Roman nobles, the nobles still paid money honestly at first.

But soon they will realize that if they always focus their career on business and trade, they will face huge taxes!

Therefore, those Roman nobles will inevitably change the focus of their careers. Although it is impossible to completely break away from commerce and trade, it is absolutely impossible for them to invest all their energy and financial resources into commerce and trade as before. possible.

Although this reduced the total income of the Roman nobles, the net income after excluding taxes increased compared with the previous completely commercial trade model.

Therefore, this method will soon be widely spread in Rome, and all nobles will use it to reduce their tax burden.

But in this way, the Roman treasury could only collect income taxes from these nobles, while the commercial taxes that should have generated the most revenue were greatly reduced.���

Overall, the taxes that Rome can collect will naturally be much less.

At this time, the nutritional supplement program for infants, young children and teenagers will become a huge burden on Rome’s finances.

In fact, it’s not just these. There are countless legal systems that are suitable for Qin but not for Rome.

As Fusu said, many of the legal systems he established are only applicable to the current Great Qin. It is not necessarily applicable to the future Great Qin. After all, the current Great Qin is developing too fast and basically changes every day. , let alone Rome, which is even a different country.

If Scipio continued to blindly imitate, not only would the Roman economy not be able to recover, but it would only be disrupted into a mess.

“Your Majesty, what His Highness Fusu said is extremely reasonable, and I heard that Scipio canonized Sophie as a princess and granted her a seat in the Senate, giving her the right to veto in all political activities in Rome.”

“The seat of the Roman Senate has always been given only to those highly respected sages. It has never been possible for someone to receive such an honor at such a young age, let alone a woman. This is probably unprecedented in Ou City in the entire history of Rome.”

“This shows that Scipio attaches great importance to the marriage with our country, the Qin Dynasty. He did this to express his attitude and show his goodwill to our country, the Qin Dynasty. Nei

Shiten said with a smile.

“Well, what you said does make sense. If that’s the case, then I’m relieved.”

After hearing what Fu Su and Nei Shi Teng said, Ying Zheng nodded.

“Speaking of which, what’s happening with Hannibal of Carthage recently? Now that Scipio’s marriage to Da Qin has been made public, as Hannibal’s old rival, he should have known the news a long time ago, right?”

Ying Zheng suddenly remembered this guy who was on par with Scipio.

“Your Majesty, according to the reports from the spies of our Great Qin army in Carthage, Hannibal has been mobilizing his main force recently. The movement trajectory is away from the Carthage and Roman defense lines, and it seems that he is vaguely preparing to retreat.”

“And just today, the high-ranking nobles of Carthage sent many rare gifts to our Great Qin, and passed on some messages. The specific effect is to ask our Great Qin to forgive Hannibal’s rude behavior, and hope that Carthage can Continue to maintain a good relationship with Da Qin and refrain from invading each other.”

“It is estimated that it will not be long before Hannibal leads his Carthaginian army to retreat to the rear.”

“As for which area Hannibal will choose as the next stronghold of the Carthaginian army, we have not yet heard about Hannibal’s plans. However, once he has new trends, I will immediately report to His Majesty and support. Reported by His Royal Highness Prince Su.”

Meng Yi replied

“Is this the end of the military retreat? Judging from my several observations of Hannibal’s marching strategy, he doesn’t seem like someone who would give up easily. I wonder what you think of this, Fusu?”

In doubt, Ying Zheng cast his gaze on Fusu.

Unconsciously,���Whenever he had questions or didn’t understand something, Ying Zheng would always subconsciously seek answers from Fusu. This had almost become a habit.

This gave Ying Zheng an idea.

In the future, he must find a way to deceive Fusu into taking the throne, so that he can naturally hand over all political affairs to Fusu, and then he can be a comfortable and leisurely Supreme Emperor, and no longer have to think about these complicated matters. national events.

Fusu naturally didn’t know what Ying Zheng was thinking at this time, so he just analyzed it seriously:

“Father, what you just said is actually correct. There is absolutely no way that a talented general like Hannibal would be willing to withdraw like this and give up the Carthage and Roman defense lines that he had defended for several years to the Roman army.”

“But according to the reports from our Da Qin spies, Hannibal’s army actually evacuated, and it was confirmed from all aspects that he was indeed evacuating. This is obviously very abnormal.”

“As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be monsters. Therefore, according to my opinion, Hannibal did not retreat, but deliberately made a gesture of preparation to retreat, in an attempt to paralyze the Roman army, and then brought it with him. His elite army is hidden somewhere, waiting for the moment when the Roman army puts down its vigilance, and then delivers a fatal blow to them!”.
