Qin Yun's words were like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's hearts.
In this time and space, in the history of history, there has never been such explosive words, let alone such words coming from the mouth of a prince.
The country is not important, the people are important!
The eldest prince Qin Tian said sternly: "Father, Qin Yun is crazy! This person not only arranged for my father, but also discredited his achievements in defeating Northern Qi and conquering the lost territory."
"I dare to guarantee with my head that Qin Yun must have some connection with Northern Qi! The country is not important, don't you want to give up my country in Great Xia to others?"
The fourth prince on the side also sneered: "What the ninth brother said is so ridiculous. Where can we get food without land? How can we feed the people without food? You don't even understand such a simple truth."
"Besides, there are so many refugees in the world. As long as there are great rivers and mountains, and the people can be moved there, they will be able to multiply and live in a few years. In my opinion, the people are just like carps crossing the river, there are so many people!"
The ministers also began to criticize Qin Yun more or less.
After all, based on their historical experience, it is.
Ordinary people are ignorant and ignorant. In their eyes, they only have one-third of an acre of land. Without the imperial court, the organization is nothing but a piece of loose sand.
However, Prime Minister Yang An took another look at Qin Yun. Previously, even if Qin Yun won the first place in the civil and military competition, Yang An did not take him seriously. Without it, he had no foundation. The better he is, the better he is. The more you become a thorn in people's eyes.
The crazier he is, the faster he will die!
Even in the eyes of most courtiers, he is a good sword.
But today, Qin Yun's words made many people look at him with admiration.
Especially those in high positions, how could they not know the importance of the people to the court, but many times people subconsciously ignore it.
At this time, Qin Ying also changed from his normal state. He slowly sat back on the dragon chair, as if thinking about Qin Yun's words.
Finally, he looked at Qin Yun with sharp eyes.
"I ask you, what is your third step?"
As soon as he said this, everyone shouted back, yes, Qin Yun said that he could perfectly solve the situation at that time, but he obviously hadn't finished yet.
Qin Yun smiled and said: "This third step is to stop fighting and negotiate peace!"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers sneered again and again. The ministers who could follow Qin Ying to this day, no matter what they think now, were definitely not peacemakers back then.
After all, Qin Ying also used his military exploits to win the supreme throne.
Qin Yun's words were almost exactly the same as those of the former prince and the King of Liang. Some people said that the reason why the former emperor dismissed the former prince was because the King of Liang advocated for peace.
Now, does the new King of Liang still advocate for peace?
At this time, the eldest prince jumped out again: "Ninth brother, is this all you can do? Begging for mercy and asking for peace? Did you know that at that time, the Northern Qi army was on the verge of falling under the capital! Daxia was in danger. If my father hadn't turned the tide, Daxia would have The country has long since perished.”
"If Daxia is willing to seek peace, will Beiqi be willing?"
Qin Yun chuckled: "Yes, Beiqi is willing!"
"Father, do you have a map?"
Qin Ying waved his hand: "Get the map of Jiuzhou Kanyu!"
Not long after, several eunuchs came forward carrying a huge canvas.
Qin Yun ordered someone to open it, and he stepped forward and pointed to the center of the map, which was the location of Daxia's capital city.
"Everyone, look! This is the capital of Daxia, surrounded by plains. No matter where the Northern Qi attacks, they can easily capture the capital."
"More than twenty years ago, it wasn't that Northern Qi had no chance to capture the capital of Daxia! But it was that it didn't dare?"
"What a joke, why doesn't Beiqi dare?"
Qin Yundao said: "I looked through the files in the archives room and found that the late emperor had already made preparations to move the capital to the south. If Northern Qi conquers this capital, all it will get is one-third of Daxia's land."
"But please note that this land has many mountains and little land, and the Northern Qi people mainly focus on herding, and their main military force is cavalry. At the beginning, the Northern Qi army drove in at a long distance, and they benefited from this. With their high mobility, they Bypassed the Jianmen Pass in the North."
"But at that time, Daxia still had 300,000 troops stationed at Jianmen Pass. Even if my father temporarily transferred 200,000 troops back to the capital, there would still be 100,000 troops."
"And what about Northern Qi? They only had less than 200,000 troops! They marched quickly because they were not bothered by baggage. Along the way, they burned, killed, and looted, which maintained the consumption of the army."
"Once we adopt the tactic of fortifying the walls and clearing the country, and stick to the cities along the way, and the Northern Qi Dynasty cannot attack the city, their soldiers will starve due to lack of food, and their horses will lack food and grass and lose their fighting power."
"We can send a small number of troops to harass day and night and defend the major passes. Northern Qi will flee without a fight!"
"When my father returned, he gave Northern Qi a head-on blow and made them retreat. But in fact, they would have retreated if they didn't come back, and the whole army might even be destroyed within the borders of Daxia."
"With the loss of these 200,000 troops, how can Northern Qi defend itself against the grassland tribes?"
"I remember that although Northern Qi retreated back then, no one in Daxia analyzed the situation. Instead, they were worried that the other side would come back, and eagerly sent supplies to allow Northern Qi's 200,000 troops to retreat safely outside the pass!"
"Everyone, do you think you won or lost this battle?"
…
Phew~~
After Qin Yun analyzed the map, many old people present who had experienced that battle also thought about whether what Qin Yun said was right or wrong.
Will Northern Qi really retreat without a fight?
Qin Ying said in a deep voice: "Even if what you say is right, how can you ask for peace?"
Qin Yun smiled and said: "Here, you don't have to ask for help! You have to call."
"Father, look at this Wolf Fang Pass. The Northern Qi people broke through this pass and entered the Central Plains. At that time, my father didn't actually have to worry about the Northern Qi army at all. He directly led people to knock down this pass. The Northern Qi will automatically come up to seek peace. When the time comes, I’m afraid it’s not Daxia that pays tribute to Northern Qi with grain and grass, but Northern Qi that pays tribute to Daxia with cattle and sheep every year!”
"Everyone, in this battle, Northern Qi is betting that Daxia will not be able to defend itself against the enemy! Obviously, they made the right bet back then."
Qin Ying frowned.
"That's right! I didn't expect that among the civil and military princes of the entire dynasty, you were the first to say these words!"
"In fact, I also wrote a letter back then suggesting that we take down Langya Pass, but your grandpa issued nine urgent edicts in a row, so I had to not come to the capital!"
Qin Yun secretly slandered in his heart, is this really the case?
In fact, judging from the files in the record room, it was too easy for the Northern Qi Dynasty to enter the Central Plains, and this cheap old man was a serious King of Zhenbei.
Qin Yun smiled, but didn't go into details any more.
"That's really because I don't know!"
"But, is there a fourth step?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned. Is there a fourth step?
