As soon as Meng Tian said this, all the civil and military officials in the hall fell into silence.

Because Meng Tian said it was indeed helplessness in reality. The Huns were nomadic peoples. They had no cities and houses. They lived on horseback and wandered around the grassland all year round.

If you send a large army to attack and fight, they will fight; if you can't fight, they will flee, and you will have no choice but to do anything to them.

This is why, after Meng Tian drove them out of the Hetao area, he did not continue to attack the Huns, because it was futile to continue to rush and pursue them.

Could it be that the Qin army can always stay in the northernmost bitter and cold place thousands of miles away?

Not only can the food and grass be transported, but even if the food and grass can be guaranteed, no one in the Qin army is willing to suffer this kind of suffering.

Moreover, the grassland is vast and boundless. Even if the Qin army is guarding the north, you will not be able to protect whether the Xiongnu army that fled the moment ago has entered the grassland from other places.

Therefore, there is no war to fight, and there is no defense to defend, so there is only one way to drive away.

Ying Zheng was actually very clear about this and was very helpless. Otherwise, with his domineering spirit, Meng Tian would have long since let the nomadic peoples such as the Xiongnu, Donghu, Yuezhi, and Yang be wiped out at one time.

The reason why these nomadic peoples are still active on the border of the Qin Dynasty is because they are completely mobile and you can't destroy them.

It is precisely because of this that Qin Shihuang did not hesitate to waste the people and ruin money, and used the whole country to build the Great Wall.

Because only by building the Great Wall can we stop the harassment and invasion of these nomadic peoples.

As a time traveler, Li Yang knew that in later generations, many people felt that the Great Wall was not very effective. In fact, this was entirely because of the modern technology of later generations that many people in later generations underestimated the role of the Great Wall.

In fact, the Great Wall can be said to have made great contributions to China. It not only affects the pattern of our country, but also the pattern of the world. Many Europeans even hate Qin Shihuang.

We know that because of the population growth, nomadic peoples cannot be self-sufficient, so they must invade and rob.

However, due to the existence of the Great Wall, many nomadic peoples were isolated and could not enter China to plunder the food of the cultivated people. However, their survival had to continue. As a last resort, they had to embark on the road of westward migration, which led to the European countries' large number of foreign populations.

According to historical records, there are many unknown small tribes in large grassland empires such as the Huns, Turks, Rouran, and Mongolia. Their waves of attacks on Europe made the European people miserable. Therefore, the existence of the Great Wall can be said to have indirectly affected the entire Eurasian continent and even the world.

For our country, although nomadic peoples are still invading each other, it does not mean that the Great Wall is useless.

In fact, he successfully blocked a large number of nomadic peoples, otherwise China would have been invaded by nomadic peoples to be unimaginable.

After the Great Wall, if nomadic peoples want to invade the Central Plains, they must go around a lot, which makes some nomadic people who cannot afford the price give up. In addition, when the Central Plains was in a strong state, the nomadic people's thoughts were even cut off.

Therefore, the contribution of the Great Wall is very great. It has greatly protected China's agricultural civilization, and these are all the contributions of Qin Shihuang.

The Huns could not be destroyed, and this matter forced Qin Shihuang to the point where he wanted to build the Great Wall to defend. Let me ask, who would have any solutions to the civil and military officials in the court?

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you, for a moment, it was relatively speechless.

Ying Zheng also sighed: "If we want to completely destroy the Huns and eliminate the hidden dangers in the north, it seems that we cannot do it now."

Meng Tian nodded: "It's true!"

"Li Yang, others often praise you, saying that you are wise and resourceful, and you are always full of ghost ideas. You can't think of a way out this time?" Seeing that all the civil and military ministers in the court had no idea, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Li Yang.

In fact, this problem is also very difficult for Li Yang to come up with a suitable plan.

If the response strategy is so easy to think of, how could Qin Shihuang be forced to the point of embarrassment of building the Great Wall?

Throughout history, even in the era of Emperor Wu of Han, all the efforts of the Han and the whole country were only driven out of the north of the Mo, and it could not really destroy the Huns.

Therefore, as a time traveler, Li Yang knew very well that no matter how powerful the Qin army was, it would never be able to destroy the nomadic peoples.

Apart from that, there are only two options left, either to drive away or assimilate.

Thinking of this, Li Yang replied: "Return to Your Majesty, destroying the Huns may not necessarily kill them all, but also assimilate them."

"assimilation?"

When Ying Zheng heard this, he frowned and was very puzzled.

Everyone was also very curious. What does Li Yang mean by assimilation mean?

"Yes, assimilation!"

Li Yang nodded confidently, seeing that everyone seemed puzzled, and then explained: "The so-called assimilation is to integrate them into our Chinese nation. Under the huge cultural and population advantages of China, the original characteristics of the nomadic peoples on the frontier, whether they are culture or blood, are gradually faded, allowing them to gradually integrate with us in this melting pot of the Chinese nation, and make their ethnic boundaries gradually blurred. In this way, there will be no Huns on the grassland, and only the people of the Qin Dynasty."

“Fusion? Assimilation?”

Suddenly, everyone was stunned by Li Yang's unprecedented novel policy theory.

For a moment, the civil and military officials of the court fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time.

Ying Zheng also frowned and pondered Li Yang's so-called strategy for assimilation and fusion.

There was a lot of thought in the Qilin Hall.

Some people, sometimes they feel enlightened, sometimes they fall into confusion again, sometimes they seem to feel subtle, and sometimes they look puzzled. In short, the expressions of the ministers in the Qilin Hall are quite complicated.

After a while, Ying Zheng seemed to be puzzled and questioned: "Although this policy is extremely wonderful, if it can really integrate the nomadic peoples of the Huns with our Great Qin and Chinese nations, it would be better, but... can it be assimilated and integrated?"

Everyone was also worried about this and was not optimistic, so they all looked at Li Yang.

Li Yang nodded with confidence: "Your Majesty, what is my Chinese nation? What is the culture of my Chinese nation? It is no exaggeration to say that we represent the highest civilization in the world. As long as we put foreign races into the great melting furnace of the Chinese nation, it is easy to assimilate and integrate them. If you don't believe it, look at the Baiyue, which is also the Yi tribe. Now, in just five years, it has been integrated with our Chinese nation."

"What's more, the 'nomadic peoples' of the Huns themselves have various blood ties, and are composed of tribes of all sizes on the grassland. The so-called Huns are not the name of a nation, but just the name of the tribe boss. Moreover, why did they sacrifice their lives to invade and plunder the Qin Dynasty? It's not for survival. As long as the Qin Dynasty can give them a peaceful life and prevent them from suffering from hunger and cold, how could they not be willing to integrate into our Chinese nation?"

While saying this, Li Yang thought of his later grassland compatriots. Although their ancestors were also nomadic peoples, Li Yang regarded them as a family in China.

After all, what Li Yang wanted to destroy was not the nomadic people, but the Huns tribe. This is like the same principle as Qin State destroying the six countries.

What is to be destroyed is not the people of the six countries, but the regime organizations of the six countries.

However, the tribal organization of the Huns is different from the six countries in the Central Plains. It can be destroyed by as long as it attacks the city. The tribal organization of the Huns can move and move, so it is difficult to conquer and destroy like the six countries.

Since the Hun tribe cannot be destroyed, the regime organization, should be directly assimilated and integrated with their people.

Even the people on the grassland were assimilated and integrated into China. Let me ask, will there be Hun tribes on this grassland?

As a time traveler, Li Yang is very clear about it.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Central Plains have been constantly fighting against nomadic peoples.

The same was true in the Qin and Han dynasties.

It can be said that the war between the Central Plains and the nomadic peoples has lasted for about two thousand years and has never stopped.

During this period, no matter whether it was the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, or the prosperous Tang Dynasty, no matter how strong your national strength was, it almost failed to completely solve the great troubles of the nomadic peoples.

This situation continued until the Qing Dynasty, and finally... the Qing Dynasty completely eradicated the great troubles of nomadic peoples that had lasted for thousands of years. Since then, the Republic of China, New China, and the nomadic peoples have become one with the Central Plains nation and become a family.

How did the Qing Dynasty do it?

It is four words: assimilation and fusion.

To put it bluntly, even the Jurchens who established the Qing Dynasty were assimilated and integrated by the Han people.

After countless dynasties, all problems that were unable to be solved by force or the efforts of the whole country, but in the end, they were completely solved without a single soldier. This may be something that all the emperors of all dynasties before the Qing Dynasty would never have dreamed of.

To be honest, this was indeed a great achievement of the Qing Dynasty.

It is precisely because he knows the history of China for two thousand years that Li Yang is very sure that if he wants to completely solve the nomadic people, he can only rely on assimilation and great integration of nations.

Because the grassland is so big, there will always be people. There will be Huns today, Donghu tomorrow, and other nomadic peoples from other places the day after tomorrow. You will never kill them all, you will never kill them all. Only assimilation and fusion can you do it. One, one, one, one group, and I will merge one group, and I will let you become one Chinese nation.

Don’t you love fighting? Don’t you love riding and shooting? Then join the army, join the Qin army, make achievements, and go on an expedition to Europe for the "our" Qin State, and rule the world together!
