Lin Feng said: "Mr. Ying, today there are five points in the world. The Yan Kingdom in the north is based in Mobei and spans the grassland. The Qin Kingdom is located in the northwest, and the Xia Kingdom is the center of the world. To the east is the territory of Qi Kingdom and is close to the sea. To the south is the Jin Kingdom. , the land is vast and abundant.”
"Each country has its own advantages, but each country also has great shortcomings."
"For example, the Yan State, although it is said to be a state, was established by barbarians. It had no court system and no legal constraints. It was composed of large and small tribes. Although it was called the Yan State, in fact, it was just large and small tribes."
"A country like this, relying on everyone having soldiers and relying on cavalry, was indeed rampant for a while. However, the barbarians of Yan State did not engage in production and made a living by herding. Even if the cavalry is fierce, it is difficult to gain a foothold, let alone dominate the world."
Lin Feng talked eloquently and continued: "The Xia Kingdom is the center of the world and was once the suzerain state of the world. The Xia Kingdom has a brilliant literary style. In addition to many great Confucians and sages, there are also hundreds of schools of thought. It can be said that the land is vast, the resources are rich, and the people are outstanding."
"However, no matter how splendid the writing style is, no matter how vast the land is, if the politicians do not care about the people, the officers and soldiers, and do not restrain the ruling officials, they will eventually fall into trouble."
"In the old days of the Xia Kingdom, no one in the world could stop the enemy."
"As the saying goes, if you work for others, you should not let them freeze to death in the snow."
"The soldiers defended the country and expanded the territory, but the families of the soldiers were dealt with arbitrarily, and the dead souls could not rest in peace. At this point, who is willing to continue to serve the country? The Xia Kingdom is already in decline."
When Lin Feng mentioned Xia Guo, his own emotions were also revealed.
He hates Xia Guo even more.
All this stems from the fact that Emperor Li Chongfu of the Xia Kingdom had no sympathy for the soldiers and only knew how to play power.
When Ying Jiuxiao heard Lin Feng's words, he said with emotion: "Those who work for everyone should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow. This sentence is insightful. Anyone who has made meritorious service to the country should be treated generously and should not be allowed to die in the snow. I can't rest in peace. Those in power should take this as a warning!"
Lin Feng nodded and said: "What Mr. Ying said is true. Those in power must exercise caution and use power with caution when they have power. People who have the power of a country and control the lives and deaths of countless people will take life and death at their word."
"The first priority is not to use power, let alone abuse it, but to curb one's desire for power."
"It is said that armed with sharp weapons, murderous intentions arise. As a king, you must guard against it."
“If you have the power of life and death, you kill indiscriminately; if you have the power of administration, you exercise authority and bring blessings; if you have the power of finance, you collect money for yourself, and do whatever you can to do whatever you can to do it, then the country will not be a country. "
"A monarch, who holds supreme power, must first use his power with caution."
Lin Feng couldn't help but speak with emotion.
He had a very good impression of the Qin State because the people in front of him could hear directly from heaven. Lin Feng just said this.
Ying Jiuxiao was shocked when he heard this.
There was even more admiration on the old face. Because what Lin Feng said was so good.
Armed with a sharp weapon, the murderous intention arises.
As a politician, be cautious.
Ying Jiuxiao originally thought that he had a high opinion of Lin Feng. He was an unparalleled national warrior and a monster-like genius. But after listening to Lin Feng's emotion again, I suddenly felt that his estimate of Lin Feng was still not enough.
In the future, maybe this is a person who can be called a 'child'.
Throughout history, sages and great Confucian scholars who can be remembered for centuries and pass on knowledge can be named after their surnames to show respect.
For example, Xun Changqing was known as Xunzi.
Lin Feng also has this potential.
Ying Jiuxiao took a deep breath, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said again: "Sir's words are so inspiring that they can be called the voice of the great road."
Lin Feng chuckled and said: "It's just a little emotion, not worth mentioning. I've already talked about Yan and Xia, let's talk about Qi. The Qi State more than a hundred years ago, through reforms, has indeed become very powerful."
"Even in the past, there were even more sage military strategists who were in charge of Qi State. Qi State's military front was not weak to Xia State. But over the years, Qi State monarchs are not pragmatic and only like flowers and flowers."
"Although there are many scribes gathered in the Qi State, they are all talking arrogantly. The scholars in the Qi State like to talk, quote scriptures, and talk eloquently. But I have always disapproved of such eloquent talks."
"What can a person get from talking all day long? Can it help govern the place and make the people eat better? The whole country of Qi is not ashamed but proud."
"Such a Qi State has lost its roots and is putting the cart before the horse, and there is nothing to fear."
"The country's prosperity is achieved by the hard work of the rulers, the hard work of the people, and the hard work of the soldiers, not words."
Lin Feng flicked his sleeves and said confidently: "Qi State's rhetoric is not worth mentioning."
Ying Jiuxiao stroked his beard and said: "Sir, you have a keen eye, and your comments are even more to the point. Compared to Xia and Qi, the Jin State today has a strong national power and is not easy to deal with."
"wrong!"
Lin Feng still shook his head.
Lin Feng said: "The Kingdom of Jin is located in the south, close to the coastline, with developed waterways and prosperous commerce. When it comes to money, most of the world's money and merchandise are gathered in the Kingdom of Jin."
"But it is precisely that the Jin Kingdom is too prosperous, with countless people doing business and indulging in the gentle countryside. As the saying goes, people in the south of the Yangtze River are full of warmth and lust, and the south of the Yangtze River is a fertile land. The children of the big families are all addicted to pleasure and wine. among.”
"The people in Jiangnan enjoy happiness that the Qin Dynasty has never imagined. They live in a corner and live a comfortable life. If Jin is attacked, they will unite and fight hard, because all their interests cannot be deprived."
"However, they are not happy to ask them to send troops north."
"The luxury of life makes them unwilling to leave their paradise. Who wants to go on conquests and endure hardships every day when they can stay at home all day long, drinking and watching movies? Mi Mi Zhi Yin has finally lost his heroic spirit."
"well said."
Ying Jiuxiao couldn't help but admire again.
He felt that all the admiration he had received in his life was concentrated on today.
Lin Feng, you said it very well.
The overwhelming sound will indeed weaken the ambition of the hero.
Therefore, Ying Jiuxiao always exercised restraint when it came to his lust for women in the harem, and never indulged himself.
After Ying Jiuxiao listened to Lin Feng's comments, he said with some anxiety: "Sir, you commented on various countries, but what about me, Da Qin?"
Lin Feng thought for a while and said slowly: "Great Qin has many advantages. The king is wise and the ministers are wise, the superiors are united, and the military is strong. But today's Great Qin has a very poor foundation."
"Faced with Bei Yan's offensive, it is not difficult for Da Qin to resist the Yan State. However, its own losses in successive years of battles have been huge, and there is not enough money and food to back it up."
"What Da Qin needs now is granaries. If there is a constant source of energy to ensure Da Qin's food replenishment and no longer worry about food, then Da Qin will truly have no worries anymore."
Lin Feng said: "In essence, fighting is still a matter of consumption and logistics. Without sufficient logistics, can you sustain it for a while or for a lifetime?"
"well……"
Ying Jiuxiao sighed.
So true.
Lin Feng's words revealed the current situation of Da Qin. Although Da Qin occupies a lot of area, even if there is a certain amount of fertile land in the northwest, it is still not enough to feed Da Qin's people and supply Da Qin's army.
If they fight for years, Da Qin's food and money will not be able to keep up.
Lin Feng continued: "Ying Gong, compared to the disadvantages of other countries, Da Qin's disadvantages are the easiest to make up for. The Emperor of Xia is the root of all evil and cannot be solved."
"The Jin State is obsessed with pleasure and has no intention of expansion; the scholars of Qi State have become a common practice; the barbarians of Yan State have no foundation and cannot evolve in a short time."
"All countries have fatal flaws, but Da Qin's flaws can be made up for."
Lin Feng said: "As long as the shortcomings in food and economics are made up, the Qin Dynasty will not be far away from the east! As for the Qin Dynasty's unification of the world, it cannot be solved overnight and in one generation. It requires too many opportunities. "
After Ying Jiuxiao listened, he nodded solemnly. He agreed with Lin Feng's words.
Very well said.
Lin Feng's analysis of the situation made Ying Jiuxiao suddenly enlightened, and he had no worries anymore.
He understood the situation in the world.
Ying Jiuxiao said again: "Sir, you are such a talented man, are you really unwilling to serve as an official? As long as you go to Xianyang as an official, I guarantee that your Majesty will give you adequate treatment and will never treat you badly."
Lin Feng smiled and said: "It is not a good thing for Mr. Ying to suddenly ascend to a high position. What's more, I have sufficient plans for my own path. I accept all the good intentions of Mr. Ying."
For Lin Feng, if he directly entered the Great Qin Court, he would have no foundation whatsoever.
This is not a good thing.
What Lin Feng has to do is to consolidate his foundation step by step and finally avenge the blood stains. Especially when it comes to revenge against Xia Kingdom, you can't make mistakes. If you make a wrong step and start over again, it will consume too much time.
So he is not in a hurry.
Ying Jiuxiao sighed, and said with emotion: "That's all, sir, you have your own ideas, I won't force you. I only hope that sir, you can enter Xianyang as soon as possible, and I can ask for advice from time to time."
Lin Feng said: "You are so polite, Mr. Ying. You are the Northern Marquis of Daqin Town, and I am an ordinary person. What's more, I am just talking and talking."
Ying Jiuxiao shook his head.
Lin Feng is not a talker, he has real talent and learning, and he is really great.
Ying Jiuxiao changed his mind and took out a token from his sleeve.
This token is completely black and rectangular, with a dragon on each side. The two dragon heads meet directly above the token, and a hollow ball is hollowed out in the center, looking like two dragons playing with a pearl.
On the front of the token is the word Qin, and on the back is the word win.
Wang Tang's heart skipped a beat when he saw Ying Jiuxiao taking out the token. This is not an ordinary token, but the Black Dragon Order, which represents the token of the Emperor of Qin.
This black dragon order is one level higher than the official level. Regardless of whether you are a prefect at the county level or a governor at the state level, you will be suppressed without distinction and must obey the orders of the Black Dragon.
Wang Tang looked at Lin Feng and was even more emotional.
Lin Feng soared into the sky.
Originally, Wang Tang believed that the emperor's private visit in disguise meant that Lin Feng's words convinced the emperor and gained his approval. Now that he saw the Black Dragon Order, Wang Tang knew that this was no longer just convincing, the emperor completely trusted Lin Feng.
Ying Jiuxiao took the Black Dragon Token and placed it on the desk in front of Lin Feng. He said solemnly: "Mr. Lin, this is the Black Dragon Token that your Majesty gave me before I left. It represents His Majesty. Regardless of meeting the prefect, he will also Or if you meet the governor of the state, you will see the official one level higher."
Lin Feng's brows rose, but a smile appeared on his face.
He is not a do-nothing person.
He is a layman.
In Da Qin, with the Black Dragon Order around, many things would be easier to handle, which would help him quickly expand his business.
Lin Feng accepted it directly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Ying. Please tell your majesty, Lin Feng, on my behalf. Thank you very much for your kindness. If the Qin Dynasty does not let me down, I will not let the Great Qin down."
This is Lin Feng’s statement.
At this point, it is natural to do this, otherwise how can the emperor feel at ease?
When Ying Jiuxiao heard Lin Feng's words, a smile appeared on his face, and he solemnly said: "Da Qin will live up to Sir."
At this time, the butler Ying Twelve entered and bowed: "Master, it's time for lunch. The house has prepared a simple banquet. Do you want to eat?"
When Lin Feng heard Ying Twelve's words, he also felt a little hungry. He stood up and said: "Ying Gong, Wang Gong, it's rare for you to come to Yongning County and have a simple meal at my house today. The food at my house, It’s guaranteed to be delicious, and I guarantee you haven’t eaten it before.”
Ying Jiuxiao stood up and said, "Okay, I will stay for a light meal."
Wang Tang and Wang Yue also followed.
The group of people left the hall and went straight to the dining room of the mansion.
