Taking the Qin State as an example, Evan Zhao proposed that it was not a bad idea to engage in war and aggression. It was entirely possible to obtain food from the enemy, fight to support the war, and plunder the Hu people to supplement money, food, and labor.
The Qin State plundered the Qiang, and the Han State could plunder the Xiongnu.
Since the Battle of Baideng, the Xiongnu have invaded the Han border every year, and the people have suffered for a long time.
When the Xiongnu went to the border counties to harvest grass, the Han could go to the grasslands to plunder cattle and sheep.
Previously, the Xiongnu had the upper hand, and the Han Dynasty could not launch a large-scale war, so it could only keep a low profile and pursue the policy of marriage. Now the situation has changed, Chang'an is getting stronger, but the grassland has suddenly become chaotic and it is in chaos. In this case, even if it is not possible to send a large army to destroy them immediately, it can still hit them with a few clubs, cut a few pieces of fat meat, and gradually recover the interest.
