to be honest,
This time the alliance between Qi and Qin really gave Ye Qingqiu a particularly great sense of crisis, especially as the memory of his past life was invalidated, making it impossible for Ye Qingqiu to predict the future direction of the world.
It was fine originally,
The only variable is Qi State.
Fortunately now, with the development of Qi State, variables are also spreading.
Now even the State of Qin is involved.
"What exactly does Han Lin want to do?"
"Are you so anxious to annex the world?"
"But the problem is..."
Ye Qingqiu took out a map from the drawer.
This map,
It is also the latest map printed by Qi State.
Because in recent years, Qi State has continued to expand externally.
The territory is also constantly changing.
Therefore, Qi's map has been changed several versions over the years.
This thing in Ye Qingqiu’s hand,
It is the latest map printed by Qi State after it occupied Handan.
And it’s a map of the world.
Including Qin, Chu, Zhao, Wei, Qian, Song, etc.
Looking from the map,
Even people who don’t understand military matters can see it.
Qi and Qin are like two giant dragons, covering the whole world and eyeing the countries in between.
With this alliance, Qi and Qin can be said to have fully demonstrated their ambition to unify the world.
"Now it seems that Chu and Zhao have been completely caught in the middle by Qi and Qin."
"Moreover, the two countries are still blocked by the State of Qian and the State of Wei. Even if they want to support each other, it is not very convenient."
"As for other countries, judging from the current situation, they are almost meat and potatoes on the chopping board, and it is only a matter of time before they are annexed."
"If the current situation continues to develop, if nothing happens, after the demise of Zhao and Chu, there will eventually be a decisive battle between Qi and Qin, which will also determine the ownership of the world."
"But the problem is..."
Ye Qingqiu's eyes fell on the map, simulating the future trend of the world in his mind.
But at the end of the simulation,
There is only the result of the decisive battle between Qi and Qin.
But when he thought of this, a look of sadness appeared on Ye Qingqiu's pretty facial features.
because,
Ye Qingqiu really couldn't imagine the possibility of Qi Guo winning.
Let’s not talk about Qi’s internal problems first.
As for the Qin State itself, its military merit system almost turned the entire country into a war machine.
This is also the fundamental reason why Qin has been able to dominate the world over the years.
Secondly,
Both the civil servants and generals of the Qin State were all outstanding talents.
The civil servant group headed by Zhang Yi, Fan Sui, and Li Si uses the world as a chessboard to control the survival of various countries.
As for the military generals, Bai Qi, Wang Jian, Zhang Han, and Meng Tian, all of them walked out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, with numerous bones under their feet.
All the glory on their bodies is made up of the corpses of the surrounding countries.
The most important thing is,
previous life,
Ye Qingqiu had personally experienced the strength of the Qin State.
The State of Qin was like a majestic mountain peak in front of him, unable to move no matter how hard he tried.
even,
Even when he had used up all his cards, Qin could easily resolve the situation and then give him a fatal blow.
Ye Qingqiu had experienced that feeling of powerlessness personally, and he also knew how terrifying Qin's strength was.
It's like a bottomless pit.
Any conspiracy or plot was easily crushed by Qin's tiger and wolf divisions.
Even after Ye Qingqiu was reborn,
There is no confidence that he can defeat Qin.
Or,
According to Ye Qingqiu’s idea,
If he could get help from Guan Zhong, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and others, and at the same time give himself enough time to develop, he might be able to compete with Qin.
This is just a counterbalance.
After all, in his previous life, Ye Qingqiu, who fought to the death with the whole country, failed to see the true strength of the Qin State.
Don't look at Qin's attack on Chu, using 600,000 troops, which is said to be the strength of the whole country.
In fact, as long as Qin is willing,
Men across the country can be mobilized at any time and sent to the front lines to fight.
Ye Qingqiu remembers this particularly deeply.
In the previous life, the battle between Qin and Zhao Changping.
At that time, after learning that the army led by Bai Qi had surrounded the main force of the Zhao army.
Emperor Qin personally rushed to the front line in Hedong, and at the same time mobilized all men over the age of fifteen in Hedong area to rush to the front line.
To know,
At that time, only the Hedong area was mobilized.
Recalling the horrors of the Qin State, Ye Qingqiu no longer had confidence in the Qi State, or in other words, he was already pessimizing the future of the Qi State in his heart.
After all, Han Lin has always been the image of a foolish king in Ye Qingqiu's mind.
Actually,
What Han Lin did was indeed a foolish king.
Calling him a foolish king is actually a bit flattering.
After all, there are only so many things that a foolish king in an ordinary country can do.
For example, they are greedy for beauty, arrogant and extravagant, carry out large-scale construction projects, enjoy great achievements, etc.
If it is a person with a violent personality, commonly known as a tyrant, he can be charged with murdering loyal people and so on.
but,
All in all,
All the problems can be found in Han Lin.
even,
Han Lin did more than those foolish kings.
For example, in terms of large-scale construction projects, Ye Qingqiu had never seen any monarch start so many projects at the same time.
Moreover, each project is so large that it requires hundreds of thousands of civilians to work on it.
Now,
According to statistics from the Ministry of Industry of Qi,
The total number of people in Qi participating in various projects has reached 2.3 million.
scary numbers,
It also allowed Ye Qingqiu to see the future of the collapse of Qi State.
Now,
What Ye Qingqiu hopes for is for Qi to collapse as soon as possible.
Only in this way can he have a chance to get involved in the throne.
By the time,
After taking control of Qi, he can develop with peace of mind, recuperate, and prepare for the decisive battle with Qin in the future.
Otherwise, with Han Lin's ability, Qi would not be able to compete with Qin, and only under his own rule could Qi have a chance.
If it were the kind of start from the previous life,
Ye Qingqiu really didn't have the confidence to fight Qin.
But now,
At least on the surface, Qi's national power is not inferior to Qin's at all.
It has a vast territory, a large population, a strong army and a prosperous economy.
It can be said,
Compared with Qi State in the same period in the previous life,
The Qi State is now more than ten times more powerful.
Moreover, there are many great talents in the country.
These,
In Ye Qingqiu's view, it was all his help in the decisive battle with Qin in the future.
If I can accept Qi State now,
Ye Qingqiu is confident that he can definitely give Qin a fight.
only......
Ye Qingqiu also knew that the throne could not be thrown into his hands by himself, and he had to wait for changes in Qi State before he could fight for it.
Slowly close the map,
Ye Qingqiu let out a long sigh and said quietly: "Han Lin, Han Lin, you said your virtue is not worthy of the throne, why can't you abdicate the throne directly."
"But I also have to thank you. At least the current state of Qi is much stronger than in the previous life, which can be regarded as laying the foundation for me to fight Qin."
"It's just... I hope that when Qi State is handed over to me, it will still look like it does today."
