Zhao Sheng then ordered his servant to fetch the map of Baiyue going south, and drew the Lingqu on it with a brush.
Brother Zheng understands why the 60 troops marching south have not captured Baiyue for so long.
Zhao Sheng's sketchy strokes made Brother Zheng see the signs of attacking Baiyue.
These several spiritual canals can be said to be the key to the capture of Baiyue.
Brother Zheng's expression gradually became serious, and he muttered to the servant next to him, "Bring Zheng Guo!"
Zheng Guo is a master at opening Lingqu, and Qin Guo's many Lingcanals are all through the hands of Zheng Guo.
Zheng Guo came to Qin State to open the spiritual canal for Qin State. It was originally South Korea's strategy to fatigue Qin State so that it could not swing at South Korea.
But in the end, the Qin State opened the Ling Canal and it became a sharp weapon of the Qin State. The area of the irrigated land was [-] square meters, and the grain and grass production per mu of land increased.
Everything is due to Zheng Guo, because of this, Qin Guo did not choose to execute Zheng Guo even though he was aware of South Korea's strategy.
Brother Zheng even reused Zheng Guo to continue to open Lingqu for Daqin.
"promise."
Brother Zheng and Zhao Sheng waited for a long time.
The figure of Zheng Guo slowly appeared in Brother Zheng's bedroom. Now Zheng Guo, with white hair on his temples, still walked towards Brother Zheng with strides, and bowed in front of Brother Zheng, his eyes were full of respect for Brother Zheng .
"My lord, I have seen Your Majesty."
Brother Zheng showed a smile on his face, and said with a smile, "Zheng Guo, do you still remember the last time we met?"
Zheng Guo cautiously raised his head to look at Brother Zheng, recalled in his mind, paused and said, "I was ordered to enter the Great Qin Dynasty in South Korea, and lobbied to open Lingqu in front of His Majesty."
The brother Zheng in Zheng Guo's memory had not yet performed the coronation ceremony at that time, and Lu Buwei had to be asked about major affairs in the court.
On that day, many ministers objected to Kailing Qu, but the young Yingzheng stood up against all opinions, and his keen political vision convinced Brother Zheng that Kailing Qu was only a few years of exhausting the Qin Dynasty, but the benefits of Lingqu would last for hundreds of years, even Thousands of years.
Similarly, at that time, even if Ying Zheng was a young man, just seeing each other made Zheng Guo deeply remember Ying Zheng.
Although the power is held in Lu Buwei's hands, Yingzheng shows the emperor's attitude.
Later, South Korea's plot was seen through by Qin State, but Qin State still chose to continue to open Lingqu. Because of the merits of Lingqu, Zheng Guo was lucky to survive and was placed under house arrest by Daqin.
During the period of house arrest, Zheng Guo heard about the young Yingzheng, regained the power from Lu Buwei, rectified the Qin State, and swung his arms to the Six Kingdoms!
The identity of Zheng Guo's release from house arrest is still in Zheng Ge's unification of the six countries.
King Qin swept Liuhe, and the tiger looked at He Xiongzai!
Chapter 144 The Canal
Brother Zheng swept the six countries, which did not surprise Zheng Guo at all. In Zheng Guo's view, Ying Zheng was a born emperor.
Otherwise, after the fall of South Korea, Zheng Guo would not have the slightest resentment towards Qin State, let alone any intention of restoring the country. Zheng Guo just wanted to see what height Yingzheng could reach.
Zheng Guo cautiously asked Brother Zheng, "Your Majesty is looking for me, what is your order?"
Brother Zheng put the Lingqu that Zhao Sheng had just painted in front of Zheng Guo.
When Zheng Guo saw the scribbled words on it, he understood why Brother Zheng had summoned him. It should be to ask Zheng Guo to open Lingqu for Daqin.
Brother Zheng believed in Zheng Guo's ability to open the Lingqu. After all, Zheng Guoqu was built very successfully.
"Maybe it can be done?" Brother Zheng asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, don't look down on me getting old. On Kailing Canal, I will never lose to anyone!" Zheng Guo has this experience and also has this confidence.
Brother Zheng gave a hearty chuckle, and continued, "It seems that Zheng Guo, you will be busy for me in your old age!"
At this time, Zhao Sheng continued to Zheng Guo, "There is not only this Lingqu, but also a canal from south to north!"
On the globe, Zhao Sheng showed Zheng the general direction of the development of the canal.
The expression on Zheng Guo's face froze. It would not take long to open the Lingqu Canal, but the canal Zhao Sheng was referring to was a major project no less than the Great Wall.
Zheng Guo couldn't help muttering, "Your Majesty really thinks highly of the old minister!"
He actually handed over such a big project to Zheng Guo.
"I believe in you!" Zheng Guo didn't see each other very often for Brother Zheng, but he seemed like an old friend for many years.
There was light in Zheng Guo's eyes, and it was a blessing to be a minister to be so trusted by the king he was loyal to.
"Zheng Guo will never disappoint His Majesty's trust."
When Brother Zheng saw Zheng Guo, he was about to bow and salute, and then stepped forward to support him.
"You are old, don't need to be polite when you see me!"
Zheng Guo shook his head like a rattle drum, and said solemnly, "Your Majesty is the king of the Great Qin Dynasty. Although I am old, I must not disobey the king's courtesy!"
Zheng Guo respected Brother Zheng very much, and insisted on saluting Brother Zheng.
Zhao Sheng, who was on the side, couldn't help being a little surprised. Maybe this is the charisma of Brother Zheng's personality.
Up to now, let Zheng Guo, who has only met twice, respect Brother Zheng so much.
Brother Zheng ordered his servants to fetch the imperial edict, which he had not yet written, so he wrote a few rough strokes on the imperial edict. The general content was to appoint Zheng Guo as the Great Qin Kailing Canal. So far, the Xiongnu slaves have obeyed Zheng Guo's dispatch.
Zheng Guo took the imperial edict written by Brother Zheng, and looked at Brother Zheng gratefully. The meaning was that Brother Zheng had not forgotten his contribution to Daqin, and he did not despise him because he was sent by South Korea. Willing to grant important tasks.
After Zheng Guo left.
Zhao Sheng couldn't help sighing, "Mr. Zheng Guo is really a tough guy with iron bones, like a bright light, shining for Daqin."
Brother Zheng thought about this, "Zheng Guo has made great contributions to Daqin. In my opinion, his contribution to Daqin is no less than that of Li Si."
The construction of the Zhengguo Canal has become a weapon of the Qin State. Because of this, the Qin State has sufficient food and grass, and one side has water and soil to support the other side. It is precisely because of this that such a brave Great Qin cavalry can appear.
When fighting against the Six Kingdoms, thanks to the Zheng Guoqu, all the food and grass kept up.
No less than Li Si, this evaluation of Zheng Guo is already quite high.
Zhao Sheng also believes that Zheng Guo deserves such a high evaluation.
"You might as well stay here today and have a drink with me." Brother Zheng mused.
"promise."
