"Wang'er, what's wrong? Are you full?" Qin Zheng quickly put away his emotions and asked with a smile on Hu Hai.

Hu Hai shook his head: "Father, Hu Hai is not full, Hu Hai just feels that his father is not full, so he brought it to you."

After saying that, he took out a piece of watermelon like a magic trick and handed it to Qin Zheng like a treasure.

"Father has long been... OK, we are half of each of us." Qin Zheng looked at Hu Hai's sincere gaze and could only change his words, and a hint of warmth surged in his heart.

Qin Zheng took the watermelon and touched Hu Hai's head with his other hand, thinking to himself: "I don't even think of my son as my son, but I have my son who hurts..."

Hu Hai also picked up a piece of watermelon and asked curiously: "Father, Hu Hai wants to ask you, where does this watermelon come from? Why have I never seen it before?"

Qin Zheng explained: "Oh, didn't your father say that it's already 1665? These ingredients are from foreign countries. In fact, there are many in the ice room, but the people in the imperial kitchen don't know how to cook."

After hearing this, Hu Hai's big eyes flashed with light: "Does there be a very powerful foreign chef? Let's go and invite them, I want one of them at a time!"

Qin Zheng smiled and shaved Hu Hai's nose: "Haha, little greedy cat! Another Heavenly Father will do it for you."

Hu Hai stuck out his tongue and smiled sly: "Hehe, thank you father. Are you happy, father?"

"Hmm?" Qin Zheng was stunned, and then he realized that his emotions were not hidden from his son. He then shook his head and complained in his heart: "So I understand so easily?"

"Hu Hai doesn't know why his father is not happy, but Hu Hai knows how to make his father happy." As he said that, Hu Hai handed over another piece of watermelon and looked at Qin Zheng with an encouraging look.

Qin Zheng did not go to pick him up, but bent down, took a bite, and praised him: "Yeah... so sweet!"

Unfortunately, before this warm scene could be maintained, Zheng Ling's anxious voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty! Emergency!"

Qin Zheng quickly wiped his mouth and said to Hu Hai with an apology: "Wang'er, I'll go over and take a look first, you can eat it yourself."

Although Hu Hai was a little disappointed, he still said well-behavedly: "Oh... Father, go quickly."

Qin Zheng left the bedroom and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

Zheng Ling replied in panic: "The bandits in the west made rebellion, and they broke through several villages, plundered and fled."

"It's another bandit!" Qin Zheng was so angry that he was so angry that he was talking about these people.

The nomads in the north have long stopped moving, and Han and Wei in the east have also been defeated; although the Shang in the south has not replied to him, he has no intention of getting into evil; there are many mountains in the south, and there are basically no living people in winter.

The entire Qin Dynasty was the most popular in the west. The key was that there were many mountains in the west and there were not many people. I couldn’t take advantage of bandits at all.

Qin Zheng frowned: "Let's go, go to the main hall first!"

On the other hand, the civil and military officials who were just eating the future "delicious delicacies" have now returned to the hall to stand, but everyone is dissatisfied with the interruption of the banquet.

"Damn it, these bandits really don't stop me. I haven't eaten that mutton skewers yet!"

"Isn't it? My Hu Gua just took a bite, mom!"

Ying Yi was also very unhappy, but before he could complain, he saw Qin Zheng coming here and shouted: "Quiet! Your coming!"

Only then did everyone end their "greetings" to the bandits unwillingly and saluted to Qin Zheng: "Welcome Your Majesty!"

Qin Zheng raised his hand to signal everyone to stand up, and then all the civil and military officials saw that Qin Zheng's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot!

Qin Zheng slapped the table and shouted: "You talk about it. The five or six thousand Han army was defeated, and the one thousand elite Wei army was defeated. Why can't we deal with a few bandits?"

The civil and military officials were speechless and didn't know how to explain. After a long time of silence, Wang Li gritted his teeth and stood up to analyze:

"Your Majesty, although I have never been to the western front line, I heard some retreating wounded soldiers mention that the horses and weapons of the bandits are different from those of our Daqin.

Somehow their horses can run on the snowy hillside without slipping and falling. They can also use various weapons on the horse, without fear of falling off at all!"

Qin Zheng felt something was wrong when he heard it, but he was not thinking about why the bandits could do it, but why the Qin army could not do it.

"It seems that the cavalry in the TV series use all kinds of weapons, right?" Qin Zheng murmured to himself.

"Your Majesty, what did you say?" Wang Li asked in confusion.

Qin Zheng hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay, what are our army using right now?"

"This horse is fast, but it is very bumpy. In order to maintain the stability of gravity, there are not many weapons that can be used.

Generally, crossbows and swords are used. Our army often uses short swords. You can stop moving before fighting to facilitate the use of crossbows. Only elite knights can use long-handled weapons.

But the wounded soldiers said that many bandits use long weapons, although they are mainly long spears. But they can really be as stable as Mount Tai while fighting!"

Qin Zheng nodded, thinking that the bandits must have been later than the Qin and Han dynasties, because he remembered that except for the bridle, the horses were invented later.

For example, kickstands and saddles are tools that make riding more stable and convenient, while horseshoes are designed to prevent slipping and protect horseshoes. It can be said that the invention of these instruments is the guarantee for cavalry to shine and heat on the battlefield.

Qin Zheng continued to ask: "When the bandits come so many times, no one has been captured? Isn't there even a person who can ask?"

Unfortunately, Qin Zheng asked the entire hall and fell into silence again. These guys in the west came and went like the wind, and left after snatching them, making Qin Jun's legs thin, but they just didn't want to flow down and "visit".

Qin Zheng glanced at him for a week and his face became worse. He was so angry that he said, "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I'll hold a banquet for you. I can't do this well?"

As soon as these words were said, the civil and military ministers were all ashamed, especially Wang Li and others who had just been awarded the honor, with their faces as if they were eggplant.

Although Qin Zheng was very angry when he saw them like this, he also knew that this was a generational messenger of hundreds or thousands of years, and no matter how much he scolded him, it would be useless.

At this time, Zhao Gao tentatively suggested: "Your Majesty, I think the thunder used in the confrontation with the Wei army seems to be effective against the horses. Do you think we are giving some of the Xichui defenders?"

In fact, Qin Zheng also thought of this. To deal with "high technology", we naturally need to use higher technology, but unfortunately Qin Zheng would not be able to do it for a while.

"My dear ideas are worth encouraging, but there are not many materials for Tianlei. The last time I gave you all our inventory." Qin Zheng said helplessly.

Now everyone has no choice, and no one can make meaningful suggestions.

Seeing this, Qin Zheng could only sigh: "First move the people in the west, and then let the defenders shrink and defend the big city. In the future, there will be no enough manpower to leave the city."

At this time, the Grand Secretary’s farmer Zi Lian suddenly felt excited and stood up to salute and said, “Your Majesty, this plan is very wonderful!”

Zhao Gao next to him thought to himself: "How can you, a strong-browed and big-eyed person, rob me of flattery?" He was about to follow him and call His Majesty 666, but Zi Lian continued to say excitedly:

"Your Majesty, the west has never been a good place to cultivate, and the bandits came four or five times in less than a month, and every time they focus on robbing food and clothing, this is obviously a shortage of food and clothing!

If we move the people inward, we will strengthen the walls and clear the fields and lose the food in our village, how long can they last?

When the next year is in full swing, we will gather our troops to deal with the bandits who have been hungry all over the winter?”

When everyone present heard this, it seemed that this was true, and they all praised Zi Lian: "I am a farmer expert!"

Qin Zheng also nodded. So far, Zi Lian's plan should be the safest. Although he had given up a lot of territory, it was worth it as long as the hidden dangers of bandits could be eliminated.

However, Qin Zheng added: "I have also said that it is now 1665, and it is more obvious that the bandit cavalry is so flexible.

Whether it is an enemy, a friend or a barbarian and foreign tribe, I will learn if I have advantages, so I decided to let the people from Lingzhou returnees teach us some new technologies.

That Grand Marshal, you bring the disciples of the Mo family, the Shaofu and the craftsmen, and ask more questions to study hard. It is best to write them down and teach them to more people. Do you understand?"
