"The world is fixed at one..."

Sun Wu is an extremely sensitive military strategist, who can see and know a little. A few years ago, from the subtle differences between the Zhao family and the Zhuqing Tianmu system, he asserted that the Zhao family would be victorious in the melee of the six officials and eventually replace the Jin state. He had also been sensitively aware that what Zhao Wuxi did was different from the past overlords and strong officials.

Sure enough, I heard Zhao Wuxi say: "After King Ping moved eastward, the king's way has declined, and the world has ushered in the domineering of the strong as Hou Bo. The source of frequent troubles, because the princes subconsciously want to expand the land and increase the people."

"In Zongzhou, King Wu and King Cheng divided more than 100 feudal lords, and later they annexed each other, and only a few dozen remained, of which Qin destroyed more than ten states, Chu more than forty states, Jin more than thirty states, and Qi destroyed two states. There are more than ten. The current situation is that the king of Jing and Wu in the south, and the king of Qi and Jin in the north, when they were first sealed in the world, the size of the territory was not hundreds of miles, and the number of people did not reach hundreds of thousands of people. In the past three hundred years, they have conquered and annexed each other, and the vastness of the land has reached thousands of miles, and the masses of the people have reached millions!"

"Can Wuzi see any pattern from it?"

Sun Wudao: "The strong are getting stronger, the weak are getting weaker, and there are fewer and fewer states that can stand in the world, nothing more than Zhou, Jin, Chu, Wu, Qi, Qin, Zheng, Song, Lu, and Yan. , the rest of the small states are not worth mentioning.”

"Not bad! The general trend of the world today is that long-term integration must be divided, and long-term separation must be together! This kind of merger will eventually lead to the rise of a superpower that truly dominates the Central Plains."

Obviously, the Zhao family is the chosen powerful country, Zhao Wuxi is slaughtering the world, splitting mountains and rivers, the strong country is subservient, and the weak country is entering the dynasty!

Sun Wu guessed that his ultimate goal would not be satisfied with being a Houbo...

The answer is already obvious.

"When there is only one central government and one government in Kyushu, can the melee of mergers end? So the world will usher in a great unification, six contract styles, and Kyushu will be unified!"

...

What's the big unification? The king was ordered to rule the first month to rule the world, so that all things were worshipped as the beginning.

Sun Wu pondered for a long time, until the chariot drove a long way, and then he breathed out: "Great unification, is this Zhao Qing's purpose? It's really deafening, the old man has studied military warfare for half his life, and his vision has risen from the military to the terrain. After rising to the national level, it cannot escape the rut, until today, it is known that the final destination of hundreds of years of chaotic warfare is unification.”

"Can you understand, sir?" Zhao Wuxi was looking forward to Sun Wu's response.

It's not that he didn't reveal to the people around him his ambition to "pacify the world" and "fix the world in one", but everyone else thought that Zhao Qing was trying to imitate Duke Huan of Qi's "nine feudal lords, one world"!

The times have created people, and the Spring and Autumn Period cannot compare with the frequent exchanges of the Warring States Period, making unity an internal consensus among enlightened scholars. Domination of the world is indeed a solution that no one has thought of in this era, because everyone thinks that this is impossible.

To be a hegemon, to respect the king and to oppose the barbarians, and to guard the order since the Zhou family moved eastward, this is the top of the vision of the lords of the great powers in the late Spring and Autumn Period. Only the madman King Ling of Chu had the ambition to "take the world", but he lost the throne and died tragically outside. His mad words became a joke and no one mentioned it again.

But in this era, some words can always shake people's hearts.

Seeing the dagger in the picture, Sun Wu's mood at this time is probably similar to the moment Qin Shihuang saw the dagger.

He was inexplicably terrified of what was about to happen.

But what followed was excitement and approval.

"Sun Wu only regrets that he didn't hear these words ten years earlier." Sun Wu bowed and saluted. This time, it was not Zhao Wuxi's status, but his vision that was far ahead of the times.

Zhao Wuxi laughed loudly: "Ten years ago, the boy was just a vulgar doctor in the country of Lu, and Wuzi might think I'm arrogant."

He was right. Until recently, the Zhao family had the strength to look at the world.

Sun Wu is someone who can jump out of a corner to see the overall situation. From a strategic point of view, the Zhao clan is like a big bird with wings spread out. His left arm was on Si Shang of the State of Lu, breaking Wei State and Zhu State in the east, and annihilating the Qing clan, and his eyes were staring at the Central Plains, attacking Han Wei and Zhou Zheng.

Times have created people, but at the same time people are also changing the times. The system of prefectures and counties is built inside, and there is no threat from powerful enemies outside. In Sun Wu’s view, this situation is much better than Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Wen of Jin, and King Zhuang of Chu.

But even if the Zhao clan is stronger than the princes, what he wants to do is still not easy.

Unknowingly, Sun Wu violated his original intention and began to put himself in the position of the Zhao family to think about the strategy. He said solemnly: "Zhao Qing knows that the world is set in one, and it cannot be achieved overnight."

"I know." Zhao Wuxi knew the cruelty of the unification war. Everything he had done so far was to prepare for that day.

"In the next few decades, I may have to keep chasing the dead and chasing the north, causing millions of corpses to be buried, so that I can take advantage of the convenience and annex the princes."

But Zhao Wuxi believes that it is worth it, precisely because through war, mankind has created a larger and better organized society. Such a society reduces the risk of members of society dying from violence. The rulers of governments take steps to keep the peace, not necessarily out of good intentions, but even inadvertently, such moves achieve the goal of creating a larger, more peaceful society.

This society is governed by stronger governments that use coercion to ensure peace and lay the foundations for prosperity. Simply put, "Wars make nations, nations make peace." Although war can, under certain conditions, go constructive and reverse larger, richer, and safer societies into smaller, poorer, and more violent societies, the long-term general trend is that war makes mankind more Safer and richer.

This is also the internal reason why China has not been able to circumvent the cycle of division-unification for thousands of years.

In other words, a few major battles have replaced frequent small battles, a short period of severe pain has replaced a lasting small pain, and these "sitting bandits" in the government have replaced "rogue bandits", and the former does much less damage to the people than the former. Exploiting with an efficient bureaucratic system is better than killing people and stealing goods directly, and whether it is to manage floods, dig canals, or open up the living space of civilization, small countries and few people will never be able to do these things, only a powerful and vast empire can do it.

Along the way, the two of them never stopped talking. From the nature of war to the possibility of reunification, Zhao Wuxi and Sun Wu, one is the "prophet" who can see 2,500 years later, and the other is five. The strategic masters who come out once in a hundred years, the world can't understand things, but they can reach a consensus among them. Zhao Wuxi opened a window for Sun Wu to see the general trend of the future, and Sun Wu could strategically make these impossible possible.

This conversation in the car is enough to go down in history.

Before they knew it~lightnovelpub.net~ they had already crossed the Soo River and arrived at the State of Zhu.

Under the spring breeze of Susi, Zhao Wuxi was in high spirits. He pointed to the city in front of him and said: "The restoration of the world will start from the state of Zhu. Although it will inevitably bleed and drift, please sir, witness this for me. everything!"

"Sun Wu wait and see!"

Sun Wu no longer feels that the iron armor does not fit well. Here, he has seen new equipment, touched the ambitions of a young monarch, and at the same time saw the dawn of a new era.

Open your eyes and watch all this happen, this is what he can do, and he doesn't know if he can see the ending in his lifetime?

He was apprehensive, apprehensive that when the new era came, everything he was familiar with would change beyond recognition. He is looking forward, looking forward to unfamiliar challenges, looking forward to seeing new things.

Sun Tzu's already dead ambition began to beat excitedly again. His art of war was in urgent need of updating...
