Qin Dynasty: Becoming a peerless master through the Golden Light Mantra
Chapter 62 The Vanguard of the Anti-Qin Campaign
Although Tian Guang didn't say it explicitly, Han Che knew without thinking which country Tian Guang was referring to.
They used the law to levy large numbers of laborers to construct various projects.
Only the Qin state could have done something like this.
It wasn't that the rulers of the six states didn't want to do it, but that they couldn't.
Because the reforms were not thorough, the officials and scholars still retained considerable influence in the courts of the six states.
for example.
If a great nobleman's fiefdom is in Nanyang.
This year, the King of Han will conscript 10,000 men from Nanyang to Xinzheng to build a palace for him. As a result, Nanyang will lose 10,000 able-bodied men this year, and many fields in Nanyang will become uncultivated.
This would seriously damage the interests of this great noble family.
Some of the land in his fiefdom is uncultivated, so the taxes he receives from the farmers this year will decrease.
Moreover, it is also a question whether these 10,000 men can return later.
Therefore, faced with the King of Han's behavior, this nobleman would argue with the King of Han in court for his own personal benefit.
For example, they criticized the King of Han for indulging in pleasure and failing to consider the plight of the people.
Immediately afterward, Han Che asked, "Was the Xia Kui referring to the Qin state just now?"
Tian Guang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this: "That's right, I was referring to the Qin state just now. Judging from your words, it seems you are quite knowledgeable about the Qin state?"
Han Che explained, "Qin is a neighboring state of Han, and a fierce tiger that could attack Han at any time. Therefore, I have been paying close attention to the situation within Qin."
Tian Guang smiled and praised, "Born in hardship, die in comfort, young master, you truly possess great wisdom."
Han Che smiled modestly: "It's nothing of great wisdom, just picking up the scraps of those who came before me."
After exchanging pleasantries, Tian Guang seized upon Han Che's earlier words and asked, "Judging from your words, young master, do you consider Qin to be a major threat to Han?"
Han Che's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this.
In his view, Tian Guang's words were definitely not ordinary communication, but a test.
It is not difficult to see from the original work that Tian Guang and the peasant family were the vanguard of the anti-Qin movement.
His involvement can be traced back to a series of events, including Jing Ke's assassination attempt on the King of Qin.
Then Han Che replied, "That's right. Although the relationship between Qin and Han is still relatively friendly, and Qin's main focus is on Zhao in the north, as long as Han shows a weakness, Qin will not hesitate to open its tiger's mouth and swallow Han whole."
Seeing that Han Che was speaking very seriously, Tian Guang immediately had a plan in mind: "Since you are so worried about Qin, have you thought about confronting Qin and weakening its power?"
Han Che's face was full of helplessness upon hearing this: "Although I have thought about confronting Qin, Qin is the strongest of the seven states, and it is also located by the natural barrier of Xiaohan. No single state can defeat Qin, not even Chu."
Tian Guang then asked, "The State of Chu boasts a million armored soldiers; how could it not be a match for the State of Qin?"
The State of Chu was the main force he chose to resist Qin.
With the help of Lord Changping as a springboard, the Farmers' family has now significantly increased its power and influence in the State of Chu.
In addition, the Xiang clan of Chu also maintained good relations with the peasants.
Han Che immediately replied, "Although the Chu Kingdom boasts a million armored soldiers, it is internally disorganized. The Farmer's School has been developing rapidly in Chu recently, and I think the Heroic Leader should be more aware of the internal situation of Chu than I am."
Upon hearing this, Tian Guang first sighed, then said with admiration, "Young master is truly farsighted. To be honest, the situation inside Chu is indeed very bad."
During his conversations with Lord Changping, he often expressed concern about the situation within the State of Chu.
The State of Chu was home to numerous noble factions, both large and small.
The three largest families were the Qu, Jing, and Zhao families. If these three families were to unite, they would be able to rival the royal family of Chu.
This made it difficult for the Chu royal family to subdue these three families.
Not to mention the scattered minor nobles within the Chu state.
Once the Chu royal family begins to consolidate the power of the nobles within the country, they will unite with the Qu, Jing, and Zhao families to oppose the Chu royal family, leaving the Chu state in a stalemate.
Han Che: "Therefore, the only way to fight against Qin is to form an alliance and gather the strength of the states in the east to jointly attack Qin."
Tian Guang shook his head slightly, his face full of worry about the alliance: "Although the alliance is a solution, if it goes on for too long, all sorts of problems will arise if the allied forces' logistics and supplies can't keep up."
Three years ago, the five states of Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Chu launched a joint alliance.
Although the coalition bypassed Hangu Pass and crossed the Yellow River at Pujin in Hedong, they fought all the way to the gates of Xianyang. However, because they bypassed Hangu Pass, the coalition's logistics and supplies could not keep up, and problems arose within the coalition.
In large-scale military operations, the most important thing is logistics and supplies.
As long as logistics and supplies can keep up, even the toughest battles can be fought by gritting our teeth and continuing.
Without logistical support and supplies, morale will crumble, and even the easiest battle will become very difficult to win.
Seeing Tian Guang's obvious concern, Han Che said, "Since you're worried that things will go wrong if this goes on for too long, let's end the battle as quickly as possible."
Seeing Han Che's confident demeanor, Tian Guang, though hesitant to believe it, couldn't help but ask, "Does Young Master have a good plan to form an alliance to attack Qin?"
"I do have a good plan that can allow the allied forces to pass through Hangu Pass and besiege Xianyang within half a month."
Tian Guang's breathing suddenly became rapid, his eyes fixed on Han Che in front of him: "Is what you say true, young master?"
"I dare not utter a single falsehood, but I cannot reveal this excellent strategy for the time being. I hope the leader can understand."
Tian Guang nodded slightly to indicate that he understood: "Such confidential matters must naturally be kept strictly confidential."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Guang looked at Han Che in front of him, feeling deeply shocked.
Taking Hangu Pass within half a month is almost impossible.
Although Hangu Pass had been captured before, it took the three states of Qi, Han, and Wei three years to finally take it during that alliance.
The difficulty of attacking Hangu Pass can be imagined.
However, he did not doubt Han Che's words.
Firstly, he felt that Han Che was a person with extraordinary talent, and it was not incomprehensible that such a person could come up with such a good method;
Secondly, if Han Che were to lie to him about this matter, he would know what the consequences would be.
The title "Hero of the Farmers" carries enough weight for the current rulers of the seven kingdoms to carefully consider.
Seeing Tian Guang in shock, Han Che did not disturb him, but waited patiently.
After a while, Tian Guang, having regained his senses, had already made up his mind.
Since Han Che has a good plan, why not try Han Che's method?
Immediately afterwards, Tian Guang stood up and bowed to Han Che with clasped hands: "If you, young master, have any idea of forming an alliance to attack Qin, I, Tian Guang, am willing to lend you a hand."
