As everyone knows, Qin Feng had already developed a strong interest in the Qilian Mountains before Wu Heli came to the southern border.
This mountain range is composed of dozens of large and small mountains, covering an area even more than five times larger than the boundaries of Gusu City.
With such a large area, once fortifications are built inside, it will be difficult for any military force in the world to conquer the Qilian Mountains.
Not to mention the lush foliage in summer, even in winter, the Qilian Mountains do not look as bare as the northern mountains, with a large number of trees intertwined among them.
Coupled with the favorable climate, as long as enough large fields are cultivated in the mountains, self-sufficiency can be achieved.
If you want to storm Qilian Mountain, there are only two ways.
One is to send out a large army and rely on the absolute numerical advantage to slowly advance inward.
But the problem is also extremely fatal, that is, the mountains are intertwined and the terrain is complex, the army will definitely be seriously disconnected, and the front is too long, resulting in logistical supply difficulties.
In addition, the mountains are lush and leafy, which is perfect for guerrilla warfare. Therefore, the cost of sending troops to attack is so high that even Qin Feng can't imagine it.
Another way is to attack with fire.
As long as the fire breaks out, it can burn everything in the Qilian Mountains.
There are also two ways to deal with fire attacks. One is to choose a location to build a stronghold, which must be independent enough.
It is not only among the mountains, but also a mountain on its own. In this way, when the flames spread, it can greatly avoid being implicated.
Another is to build a fire break at the foot of the mountain. Even if a fire breaks out, the flames can be isolated and a disaster can be avoided.
However, if you want to turn Qilian Mountain into a shelter, the amount of money invested will be an astronomical figure that is difficult to estimate.
But no matter how high the price is, it is still worth it.
As the saying goes, putting all your eggs in one basket is a big no-no.
No matter how well Beixi County develops and how strong its military capabilities are, it will eventually collapse one day. After all, there has never been any city in this world that will last forever.
Even countries rise and fall alternately, let alone a mere northern border?
Another reason why Qin Feng valued the Qilian Mountains was that the Qilian Mountains had a special location, bordering the Central Plains and the southern border, although it was a bit far from the northern border.
But as long as we can hide in the Qilian Mountains before the "disaster" strikes, we can not only save our lives, but also send people out of the mountains to purchase materials in the southern border or the Central Plains in the subsequent period.
What Qin Feng can do is to maintain the Qin family's "hundred-year decline". As for what will happen a hundred years from now, that is not what Qin Feng can decide.
Even Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wu of Han, great emperors through the ages, could not control what happened behind them. No matter how arrogant Qin Feng was, he would never be conceited enough to believe that the Qin family could last for eternity.
Knowing that Qin Feng was going to the Qilian Mountains not only to suppress bandits but also to prepare a way out for the Qin family, Liu Hongyan could only nod in agreement even if she was worried.
"Feng'er, thank you for your hard work."
"What would the Qin family do in the future without you?"
Liu Hongyan stretched out her hand and gently touched Qin Feng's cheek, her eyes were full of tenderness. For her and the entire Qin family, Qin Feng was the only support.
Although Xie Yun'er is already married to Qin Feng, she strongly agrees with Qin Feng's "preparing for a rainy day".
After all, Ning Guogong's mansion was almost destroyed.
Xie Yun'er never hoped that the Qin family would one day follow in the footsteps of Ning Guo Gongfu.
"Husband, since the Qilian Mountains are so important, I will naturally not stop you anymore, but the situation in the Qilian Mountains is complicated after all. You must be more careful."
Listening to Xie Yun'er's reminder, Qin Feng felt warm in his heart.
Thinking back to the beginning, that violent girl who made the whole Kyoto feared has now become much more stable and intellectual.
Qin Feng couldn't be more pleased.
But at this moment, Princess Qiyang's voice rang out.
There was deep doubt in her tone: "Although I am the princess, I have also experienced the hardships of the royal family. Don't worry, Qin Feng, I will naturally not betray you."
"But there's one thing I can't figure out."
"If you are worried that one day you will be liquidated, why don't you concentrate on running Beidi?"
"After all, Jing Qianying is the Queen of Beidi."
Hearing this, Qin Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Run Beidi? Let Daliang and Beidi fall into endless war again?"
“It’s hard for the people to prosper, and it’s hard for the people to die.”
"Since you have come to the front line, you will naturally see how miserable the people nearby are. All of this is caused by the war."
"If you want the people not to suffer, the best way is not to fight."
Princess Qiyang's eyes changed again and again when she looked at Qin Feng.
She still couldn't figure out before that, with Qin Feng's character, he could blindly seek escape from the world instead of directly... leading troops north to attack Kyoto.
Qin Feng not only has the courage, but also the strength.
Now Princess Qiyang understands that everything Qin Feng does is for the sake of the people.
Looking at the entire court, I am afraid that only Qin Feng cares about the common people the most. Even His Majesty is currently involved in a power struggle. As long as he can consolidate the power in his hands, he will remain indifferent even if he knows that the whole country will be starved to death. …
If Qin Feng can sit on the supreme throne, Daliang will surely usher in a prosperous age.
It's a pity... Qin Feng is unwilling to see the people being baptized by the flames of war. Therefore, hiding in the mountains and forests and becoming a hermit may not be a bad choice.
After all, not everyone wants to rule the world, and not everyone covets the supreme throne.
In Qin Feng's eyes, from beginning to end, the most important thing is always the word "family".
With the support of Liu Hongyan and Xie Yun'er, Qin Feng suddenly felt relaxed.
He had a serious face just a moment ago, but in an instant he became arrogant again.
"Hahaha, second sister, Yun'er, don't worry."
"The Qilian Mountains are just a precautionary measure. I have put so much effort into the Northern Territory, how can I just let it go?"
"If the general trend is really the general trend and we hide in the mountains, we will not live a life of eating chaffy vegetables."
"I will naturally turn Qilian Mountain into a paradise."
Liu Hongyan and Xie Yun'er looked at each other and laughed in unison. Of course they believed Qin Feng.
So far, all Qin Feng's bold words and ambitions have been fulfilled.
Therefore, no matter how much Qin Feng boasts, the two girls will not have the slightest doubt.
Originally, Qin Feng planned to send someone to take the female relatives back to Kyoto after a brief reunion, but at this time, Qin Feng changed his mind.
Suddenly there are women around me who care about me. If I go back to the life of a bachelor, I really won't be able to adapt to it.
