Chapter 314: The second generation of the Qin Dynasty will not perish, but the third generation will perish
Zhang Han said: "Writing is not just about having a large number of people. Good weapons are enough. It also requires morale. An army without morale, even if you have one million soldiers, is no match for a thousand soldiers with high morale."
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "That's true. I can already imagine that the British Navy must be ready for a life-and-death battle by then. The soldiers have high morale and are not afraid of sacrifice.
On the other hand, Spain, although it has a large number of people, has no morale and even refuses to fight.
In such a situation, I am afraid that Sun Wu and Bai Qi will not be able to save the situation even if they are still alive. "
Qin An said: "If it is really Sun Wu, Bai Qi and others who lead the troops to fight, I am afraid they will die faster."
"What does this mean?" Ying Zheng asked.
"How can an army general command naval operations?" Qin An asked rhetorically.
Ying Zheng was speechless. It was indeed true. Da Qin did not have a navy, so how could it command its navy to fight?
Qin An smiled and said: "In addition to Spain's internal conflicts and the war-weariness of its soldiers, Spain's defeat to Britain was also due to the fact that Philip II sent an army general who did not understand maritime affairs to command the Armada."
"Why would Philip II be so stupid to let a person who doesn't understand maritime affairs command the Armada? Otherwise, even if the British Navy wants to win, it will have to pay a price." Ying Zheng asked.
Qin An smiled and said: "Maybe Spain is going to die. The original coach unfortunately passed away before the war.
Therefore, Philip II made the army general the commander of the Armada. There is another thing that proves that God wants to destroy Spain and wants to make Britain stronger. "
"What's going on?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.
Others also looked at Qin An very curiously.
Qin An smiled and said: "That was a natural disaster. The Invincible Fleet encountered strong winds and huge waves at sea. History books said it was an Atlantic storm.
This Atlantic storm caused heavy casualties to the Armada.
By the time they met the British navy, they were already exhausted and had no fighting power to fight against them.
As soon as the battle began, they showed a defeat and could not stop the British navy's offensive.
In order to preserve his strength, the Spanish coach decided to retreat, return to his country to rest, and wait for recovery before making a comeback.
But no one expected that the Spanish Navy encountered an Atlantic storm again on the way back, and in the end only 43 broken ships were left in the Armada. "
Can it still be like this?
Ying Zheng and others were really speechless. They knew that the British Navy must be so damn lucky.
If we talk about the first two reasons, Spain can still change them through hard work or at a critical moment of life and death. For example, the soldiers' war-weariness can be improved by using bounties or titles to improve morale.
If that doesn't work, let the soldiers feel the fear of death. If you don't think about it, you have to fight. Morale can be restored to some extent. Even if you can't win, you won't be defeated like this.
If he followed Xiang Yu's example and tried to destroy the boat, it would be possible to defeat the British navy.
As for the second reason, if the coach is not good enough, then it is definitely better to leave it to the captain below to direct the battle than to have a coach who doesn't understand maritime affairs blindly direct the battle.
However, the third point, natural disasters, is powerless. Especially at sea, there is no place to hide.
"It's really God who wants to destroy the Invincible Fleet. We can't hide even if we want to." Zhang Han said helplessly.
Qin An nodded and said: "You're right, no one can hide whoever God wants to perish. Just like the Great Qin, if God wants Great Qin to become strong and powerful, no one can stop it. Likewise, if God wants the Great Qin II to perish, there is no way. Method.
This is both God's will and man-made, and there is nothing we can do about it. "
Ying Zheng sighed helplessly and said: "If the First Emperor did not drive Fusu to the border and did not go to the east to patrol, then the Great Qin Dynasty would not have perished."
Qin An shook his head and said: "Although Great Qin will not die after two generations, it will definitely not last long."
"Why is this?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Qin An." Li Si said, "Don't forget that there are many capable ministers under the First Emperor.
There are Li Si, Feng Quji, Meng Yi and others in the literature, and Meng Tian, Wang Ben, Li Xin and others in the military. Could it be that this is not enough to save Da Qin? "
Feng Quji and others also looked at Qin An very curiously. Could it be that they and others couldn't protect Da Qin? is it possible?
Qin An replied: "Yes, the First Emperor's subordinates are all capable ministers, but how many of those capable ministers are from Qin? Is it Li Si? Is it Meng Tian?"
No, neither. They are all from the Six Kingdoms. Except for the nobles, there are no people from the Qin Kingdom.
Do you see any problems in it? "
question?
Everyone frowned slightly and didn't see any problem.
Ying Zheng's frown deepened, as if he saw a serious problem.
"My lord, please speak clearly." Ying Yinman said, "How do we know about Da Qin's problems?"
"Alas." Qin An sighed. "Okay. In fact, the problem is that the people of Lao Qin cannot produce talents by themselves.
The First Emperor's men were all talented people from all over the world, and now all the talented people from all over the world have returned to the imperial court. There are very few people who are unwilling to come to the court because they still do not agree with Da Qin, and even hate Da Qin, and have a hatred for Da Qin to destroy the country. "
When Ying Zheng heard this, he suddenly became enlightened and said, "I understand. Da Qin governs the world with military merit. Da Qin has countless armies, so that all the people can be soldiers.
However, Da Qin did not have the talents to manage the country. Li Si and others were talents from other countries. They waited until they all died.
Da Qin will have no talent to manage the country, and Da Qin will have to perish even if it doesn't want to perish. "
"Father-in-law is right." Qin An said, "So the second generation of Great Qin will not forget that he will perish after the third generation.
The problem lies in Shang Yang's reforms. His military merit system helped Da Qin reach its peak, but it also curbed the development of Da Qin's talents.
Therefore, Shang Yang defeated Shang Yang when the Qin Dynasty succeeded. "
Li Si and others did not understand the truth at this time, and they all wiped away cold sweat. Fortunately, the Qin Dynasty has been unified now, and the people of the world have returned.
Coupled with the imperial examination system of the imperial court, people from all over the world have come to the forefront.
In addition to serving as soldiers, ordinary people can also study. In addition, learning medical skills, farming, and Mohist learning can all become common people's ways.
Therefore, the problems Qin An mentioned no longer exist.
"Haha..." Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Qin An's analysis is correct. Even if the Qin Dynasty survives in the second generation, it will surely perish in the third generation.
Qin An, can you build a ship? "
"That depends on what kind of ship is built." Qin An said.
"Then what kind of ship can you build?" Ying Zheng asked again.
"I can basically build those ships in ancient times." Qin An replied, "I have mainly studied two types of ships, one is the large ship used by Zheng He on his voyages to the West, and the other is the sail battleship.
One was built by China, and the other was built by France in Europe. "
Some people died, but not completely...
