"Meng Tian meets Zuo Shuchang!"

In Qin State, those with low titles obeyed high titles. Yang Duanhe's title was one level higher than Meng Tian, ​​and he had been in the army for many years and had a higher qualification.

If Zhao Ying had not been the special envoy of the Qin King, he would not have dared to act so arrogantly.

"Well, no gift!" Yang Duanhe responded lightly, and did not get off the car, but entered the city directly.

Meng Tian wrinkled his head, but he didn't say anything after all.

When Wang Jian conquered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Meng Tian had met Yang Duanhe, but he was not so arrogant, but unexpectedly, when he met again, Yang Duanhe showed a little nostrils.

In the army, both military merits and qualifications are discussed.

Yang Duanhe joined the army in his early years, and after many years, he gradually rose to the position of Zuo Shuchang. When he first led his troops, he had only 500 people under his command.

Meng Tian was only twenty-four years old. He upgraded at a rocket-like speed and gained the trust of Ying Zheng. As soon as he started to lead the troops, he had tens of thousands of people under his command. Veterans like Yang Duanhe couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

If you are promoted from above, the leader has the reputation of knowing people, but the person you are recognized will be envied by others.

"Zuo Shuchang, Qu Ju feels so distressed! General Meng takes over the big responsibilities in Shangjun and builds a big stake. It is not enough to build the Great Wall. He also builds a city outside the Great Wall...."

In the county magistrate's mansion, Qu Ju seized the opportunity and suffered a lot of grievances. He was full of hope that Yang Duanhe could take Meng Tian away, so as to save him from living so tired all day.

Qu Ju read Laozi well, believed in Huang-Lao's theory, advocated inaction, and Meng Tian's approach. In his opinion, it was too much of ambition.

"Oh, Meng Tian is still building a city outside the Great Wall?"

Yang Duanhe was shocked. Meng Tian should not provoke disputes with the Huns. If he handed over the 30,000 troops, he would feel distressed enough.

"Yes, General Meng said that a bridgehead needs to be set up outside the Great Wall, which is more conducive to counterattacking the Huns..."

"Ba"

Before Qu Ju could finish his words, Yang Duanhe slapped him on the desk in front of the hall.

"How easy is it to fight back against the Huns? The king is now working hard to deal with Zhao State. Where can there be any extra soldiers for him to fight against the Huns!"

Qu Ju laughed in his heart. The evil people will be punished by evil people. He cannot deal with Meng Tian, ​​and Yang Duan will deal with such people.

After staying in the army for a long time, Yang Duanhe did not understand Qu Ju’s ingenuity. As the saying goes, only those who have ghosts in their hearts will see ghosts in their eyes.

Yang Duanhe thought that Meng Tian had the intention to expand the war, so he wanted to ask the court for troops and food and achieve great merits. When King Zhaoxiang was in power, the generals of Qin seized the loopholes in the military merit system and tried every means to expand the war on the front line, and beheaded first and then talk about other things.

When Meng Tian took Ying Zheng's order and handed over the troops and returned to the county magistrate's office, it seemed that hail began to start to fall on Yang Duan and his face covered with clouds.

The county magistrate bowed his head respectfully and turned a blind eye to the matter outside the window, as if nothing had to do with him.

"Are you even happier when you have added 30,000 new troops to the barracks?" Yang Duanhe's tone was very cold.

"Don't dare, Meng Tian was trembling and trepidated. I had 30,000 troops and horses in my hand, plus 30,000 reinforcements from Zuo Shuchang. When the Huns attacked, the king agreed that I had the right to summon the county soldiers of Shangjun. In this way, there were 100,000 troops on guard on the Great Wall line. Meng Tian knew in his heart that he had never commanded so many troops and could not be easily at the moment."

What's wrong with Yang carrying this? Did you come to your aunt? Meng Tian asked in his heart, he didn't offend him.

"It's not a good thing for you to know your profile, young people, it's not a good thing to go too smoothly..."

A thought flashed through Yang Duanhe's mind. If it weren't for Meng Ao and Meng Wu's kindness, Meng Tian wouldn't have been promoted so quickly.

"I'll ask you, the king ordered the Qin army in Shangjun to not go to war with the Huns. Why did you cross the Great Wall and build a city on the territory of the Huns?"

Yang Duanhe thought that the 100,000 people in Shangjun were enough to stop the Huns from moving south. As long as there was no full-scale war with the Huns, the Qin army would advance eastward and have no worries.

It turned out that it was to build a trest outside the Great Wall. When Meng Tian heard Yang Duanhe's questioning, he felt relieved.

When Zhao Ying came, Meng Tian was wary of Qu Ju's report. As a result, Zhao Ying left, but Qu Ju came to Yang Duanhe.

In later generations, officials like Quju are the kind who do not seek merit but only seek nothing wrong.

When the Huns entered Qin, the county lieutenant and the chief lieutenant died in battle. He defended his sternly. Although he was negative, he could not say anything wrong. Ying Zheng had wanted to remove him, but he could not find any legal reasons. Some ministers wrote a letter to defend Qu Ju. The military of the border counties was originally under the responsibility of the county lieutenant, and Qu Ju only achieved full decentralization.

Qu Ju was promoted during the Lu Buwei era, and many officials in Xianyang were worried that Ying Zheng would replace officials like Qu Ju one by one, so he carefully said good things for him.

After much persuasion, Ying Zheng took back the idea of ​​dismissing Qu Ju, and turned around and appointed Meng Tian as the county magistrate of Shangjun, who was fully responsible for the military of Shangjun and prepared for the war against the Huns. As well, part of the power of Qu Ju County Magistrate was transferred to Meng Tian by Ying Zheng's decree.

Qu Ju performed his duties normally on the surface, but secretly hated Meng Tian in his heart. It was not only because Meng Tian was young, had a high title, or was trusted by the king, but because he was in the same world, Meng Tian's power expanded and his interests were damaged.

"Zuo Shuchang, I built a city outside the Great Wall, on the one hand, to consolidate the Shangjun defense line, and on the other hand, to completely resolve the worries about the attack on Zhao's army!"

Meng Tian bowed with both hands and replied respectfully. Qu Ju didn't understand military affairs. As a veteran general, Yang Duanhe should be able to understand Meng Tian's painstaking efforts.

"I hope to hear it carefully!"

Meng Tian's remarks aroused Yang Duanhe's curiosity. Although he was dissatisfied with Meng Tian's coming from behind, when it comes to military issues, he consciously discussed the matter.

Because of his profession as a soldier, he also wanted to see what Meng Tian had outstanding in military strategy.

"Please look at the general--"

Meng Tian winked, and Jing Su immediately understood and took out the latest Great Wall map from his arms and spread it in front of Yang Duanhe.

"The land ten miles outside the Great Wall breaks through the Nu Pass. The terrain is not very steep, but it is also quite uneven. As long as two trests are built on one left and one right, it forms a corner with the Great Wall defense line and supports each other, I will be fully sure to block the Huns from the Great Wall."

Yang Duanhe stroked his beautiful and soft beard, pondered, squinted his eyes, and nodded. He had never handled the defense line of Shangjun, but burning the war to the enemy's territory was the principle of the Qin army.

Perhaps in order to avoid irritating the Huns, the former county magistrate of Shangjun did not make full use of the favorable terrain outside the Breaking of the Nu Pass.

"According to this slope, it is not enough to stop the Huns' cavalry from charging."

Yang Duanhe would not simply agree with Meng Tian's statement. He lowered his head, carefully looked at the lines similar to the climbing line on the map, and raised his own questions.

The Qin State's terrain geoscience technology was ahead of this era. The military map drawn by the map masters already had the prototype of contour lines on it.

"After the construction of the two trests is completed, I will build another Great Wall based on this."

Meng Tian picked up a brush and drew a semicircular Great Wall pattern on the map. In this way, the original Great Wall in Shangjun expanded outward for ten miles, forming a perfect urn city.

No wonder Qu Ju complained that Meng Tian’s construction in Shangjun seems to be a real thing. However, from a military perspective, Meng Tian’s outer Great Wall is conducive to Shangjun’s defense, so he doesn’t have to worry about the Huns threatening the Qin army’s rear.

The children of the Meng family are here to build the city walls with peace of mind and be the logistics manager who is good at attacking Zhao Dajun, so they will not have an easy opportunity to make meritorious contributions in the future. Thinking of this, Yang Duanhe is not so resistant to Meng Tian's plan. However, out of professional habits, he blurted out his doubts:

"The plan is good, but how can you guarantee that the Huns will watch you enclose the land?"
