Chapter 390: Latent

From Yi Xingchen's establishment of Xinghua to today, Xinghua has developed from the initial zero population to today's three major cities of Xinghua, Xilin and Nantu, with a population of more than one million. Therefore, today, Xinghua naturally has to be particular about doing things, and it is best to have a righteous reason before going to war, so as not to fall into the mouth of other countries.

Leon's words are not unreasonable, what he means, Yi Xingchen knows very well. It's not that Yi Xingchen doesn't want to occupy the entire Dongli Kingdom, but what he thinks about is not limited to whether the Xinghua Kingdom's occupation of these areas of the Dongli Kingdom will be as Leon said, because today they did not send troops in time to get involved in the war between the Xia Kingdom and the Dongli Kingdom, and in other days, when the situation between the two countries is stable, they will be harassed by any victorious side.

In fact, Yi Xingchen's consideration was based on the overall situation - he thought more about whether if he approved Lyon to send troops and finally succeeded in occupying the entire territory of Dongli Kingdom, under the premise of this assumption, would the result mean that he could bring development to Xinghua Kingdom.

Unless he can be sure that this situation is beneficial to the national conditions of Xinghua Country, otherwise, if he occupies the east and leaves the country, the result will only be that the strength of the national army will be involved, and it will fall into a quagmire, and even worse, it will lead to the negative effect of the decline of national strength, why should Yi Xingchen rush to occupy it.

Because, what Yi Xingchen wants to subdue is the hearts of the people, not the country. He thinks more about his people. Be able to live a stable life. The country can prosper. Otherwise. Even if you get a huge territory, but there is no one to manage and manage it, it is useless to occupy it. Therefore, what Yi Xingchen wants is not only to leave the country, but also to want the citizens who have left the country to the east, and to be able to return to the country sincerely and become the citizens of Xinghua Kingdom.

At the same time, Yi Xingchen is actually confident. With the current development momentum of Xinghua Kingdom, as well as his continuous support from Blue Mercury, and with the three big cities of Xinghua, Xilin and Nantucheng that he has already captured as the foundation, even without the invasion of the Xia army, Yi Xingchen believes that Xinghua Kingdom will slowly encroach on Dongli Country in the end, replace Dongli Country, and win the hearts of the people.

Therefore, Yi Xingchen did not disagree with sending troops, but now. It's not a good time to send troops. On the contrary, Xinghuaguo should stay out of the matter for the time being. Let's watch the snipe and mussels compete with each other, and wait for the fisherman's profit. The best opportunity that should be quietly waited for is when the people who have left the country are in dire straits.

Only in the east of the country to protect the people is powerless, the Xia State to attack the city and seize the pond also lost the people's desire, at that time, the Xinghua army appeared as a savior, one can take the city, the other can win the hearts of the people in one fell swoop. This kind of beautiful thing that kills two birds with one stone is the most in line with Yi Xingchen's wishes.

And these, Lyon, of course, do not know.

After Yi Xingchen finished his instructions, he thought about it, and did not put the document on hold, but put it in the left position. Documents placed in this position are generally sent to the Cabinet before they are executed, and the Cabinet also has to look at them again. If there are ministers in the cabinet who have different opinions on the orders issued by Yi Xingchen, Yi Xingchen can discuss them again, and if there is no opinion, the cabinet will also support it, and the cabinet will issue it to the Xilin Legion. This is one of the missions given to the cabinet by Yi Xingchen, which is to assist the implementation of the king's orders.

Then, Yi Xingchen signed another order, ordering Neo, the commander of the second legion stationed in Xinghua City, the Xinghua Legion, to lead three thousand Xinghua Legions to Xilin City and be ready at any time.

However, the task that Yi Xingchen gave to Neo, the second legion, was not to attack Wangdong City, but to wait for an opportunity to attack Beisha City.

Now Dongli Guobeishacheng is in the hands of the old Dongli King, which has always been a scourge. Yi Xingchen was very worried that once the Xilin Legion intervened in the war between the Xia Kingdom and the Dongli Kingdom in the east, the Dongli Legion of Beisha City would sneak attack Xilin City. Yi Xingchen couldn't allow this kind of situation where the front door went to war, but the backyard caught fire at the same time. In order to avoid the possibility of the Xilin Legion facing a two-sided attack, Yi Xingchen must solve this scourge in advance, only in this way will Wangdong City become an isolated city. When the time comes, when Xinghua Kingdom wants to occupy Wangdong City, it can occupy Wangdong City.

After giving the two orders, Yi Xingchen leaned back in his chair, he should have had the leisure to complete the big things, but he was still thinking about the situation of the Xilin Legion of Xinghua Kingdom in his mind.

Yi Xingchen had to admit that Leon suggested sending troops three times and twice, which was indeed a heartwarming suggestion that he could not ignore.

Yi Xingchen looked at the ceiling and began to think about the feasible military strategy of the Xilin Legion.

Suddenly, Yi Xingchen thought of Xia Guo.

From the previous information, Yi Xingchen learned that the reason why the Xia Kingdom would send troops to invade the East Departure Country today was not entirely because of the intention of aggression, in fact, it was the war that the East Left the country instigated first. This point is no coincidence with the Xinghua Kingdom and the Eastern Departure Kingdom.

Therefore, Yi Xingchen thought of whether he could make full use of this coincidence and send an envoy to the Xia State to ask for an alliance and reach a consensus with the Emperor of the Xia State, and the two countries would join forces to attack the Dongli Kingdom.

Yi Xingchen believes that the Emperor of Xia has just ascended the throne, and his position has not yet been secured, and it is also a time when it is extremely necessary to establish his prestige as soon as possible.

Therefore, comparing his heart to his heart, Yi Xingchen knew that the Emperor of the Xia Kingdom would definitely consider their proposal to rejuvenate the Hua Kingdom.

So, Yi Xingchen immediately straightened his body, used another document to write down his idea, and waited for Prime Minister Sheehan to convene the ministers to discuss.

After completing this thing, Yi Xingchen really felt that his head could finally be empty, and when he was in a good mood, he put all the official documents away, returned to the bedroom of the palace, used the energy crystal, and cultivated the sword qi for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but thanks to the palace guards' words and reminders, Yi Xingchen ended his cultivation. Pack yourself up a little. Return to Blue Mercury.

When Yi Xingchen returned to the comfort restaurant. Scarlett had already finished her meal and had already left the restaurant. Therefore, Yi Xingchen only learned from Yan En's mouth that his female assistant had come to the comfortable restaurant. It's just that when he heard the news, he jumped into Yi Xingchen's mind, but he himself was very surprised. It turned out to be a little displeased, not that Scarlett might have something to do with him.

Yi Xingchen looked at the time, it was more than nine o'clock in the evening, it was not too late, and after thinking about it, Yi Xingchen simply called Scarlett and asked her what was the matter.

When Scarlett received Yi Xingchen's call, she was a little surprised. She originally thought that she had been forgotten by her boss, and secondly. She didn't expect that Yi Xingchen would call her at this time.

However, since she received the call, Scarlett was also on the phone to report on Wang Ruonan's work in the United States.

Yi Xingchen knew that Wang Ruonan's store in the United States was being renovated and must need financial support, so he asked Scarlett to make a report on how much funding was needed for the problems encountered by Wang Ruonan within two days.

Then, Yi Xingchen asked Scarlett if there was anything else.

Scarlett had no other situation to report, so Yi Xingchen answered a few words, and then hung up the phone.

Yi Xingchen sat quietly in the bedroom, thinking about something.

Nowadays, because of the existence of Xinghua Mall, the situation in Reunion is changing more and more, and it is unpredictable.

Yi Xingchen turned on the TV, and an important news was broadcasting on the evening news of Rénia.

President Daniel of Rénia, announced the news that, according to the records of the police department, there have been several thefts in Rénia. For the sake of the security environment in Rénia, the Presidential Office ordered a severe crackdown on theft and other illegal crimes...... All citizens have the obligation to cooperate with the police investigation.

Although this news seems unremarkable, Yi Xingchen knew from the analysis of the intelligence officers of the Xinghua think tank that this was the Reunion government, which was doing an act of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. Moreover, it is not excluded that the Rénian government will increase some actions. For example, there was a kidnapping at the headquarters of the Rénian Army, which made the Rénian military feel shameless. The military was dissatisfied, so they put pressure on the government.

Apparently unwilling for the military to intervene in domestic affairs, the government promised the army that the police would vigorously investigate the case.

Therefore, President Daniel's declaration is to give the police a veneer of legitimacy for the next action.

It is precisely because of these that Yi Xingchen thinks that he cannot ignore this news, but needs to be vigilant.

Although the results of Brian's interrogation have not yet come out, it does not prevent Yi Xingchen from guessing the relationship between the Shadow and the Reunion military, especially when he already feels that there is a clue between the two sides.

Because of the discovery of Shadow's pawns in the Reunion military, Yi Xingchen decided to increase his investment in the military.

On the one hand, continue to send the citizens of Xinghua to join the Reunion army, and find ways to get them promoted and hold real power. On the other hand, Yi Xingchen went to sponsor some military officers in need of funding through his assistant to the council, Tari Gaia, and took the initiative to make friends with the officers.

Yi Xingchen changed his original intention, and the strategy of slowly cultivating his own people became a strategy of vigorously subsidizing domestic officers. It was he who had a faint sense of urgency, and for the safety of his own lives and property, he must step up his efforts in the army and cultivate his own forces and military forces close to him. This is the time to prevent the status of parliamentarians from lapsing and Schmidt to continue to gain a foothold in Rénia.

There was a knock at the bedroom door.

There was Yan Zhong guarding the door, Yan Zhong did not stop him, obviously not an outsider, Yi Xingchen said: "Come in." ”

The door opened, Yan En walked in, saluted Yi Xingchen, and reported softly: "Your Majesty, there is news from the lurkers. ”

"Lurkers?!" Yi Xingchen was slightly surprised, he had just decided to send more people into the Reunion Army, and the news came from the Lurkers, which was a bit of a coincidence. However, Yi Xingchen didn't suspect anything. Because the lurkers are several palace guards of Xinghua Kingdom that Yi Xingchen sent into the Reunion Army earlier.

These guards, with the support of Xinghua Distillery's funds, became Reunion officers, and their road to the army has been smooth. It's just that they haven't been in the army for a long time, and because of seniority, they have not been able to hold important positions.

"Your Majesty, it's news from Lurker Two...... At the Garrison Command of the city of Reunion, a vacancy was made. The rank of Infiltrator II is up to the mark and qualitative for the position. Therefore, he wants to fight for this position. However, No. 2 lacked connections in the army, and hoped that the state could help him. Yan En continued.

The second lurker entered the army, and at first it was Charlie, the palace guard next to Yi Xingchen, who was in charge of secret contact with Leon. After Charlie and Leon were promoted, the matter of contact was handed over to Yan En. The two sides have always been one-line contact, and it is easy to disappear. This time, it was the first time that Yan En had heard from them. Yan En reported to Yi Xingchen as soon as possible.

"What position is in the garrison headquarters?" Yi Xingchen asked. He was curious about what position could make No. 2 so excited.

"There is a vacancy for the commander of a battalion of the Reunion City garrison of the Reunion City Garrison Command, and the second wants to get this position. Yan En replied.

Yi Xingchen was slightly startled, and said movingly: "Is this location very important? Do you know where this battalion is stationed, and how big is the scale?"

"I have already investigated, and this battalion is stationed in the military camp on the outskirts of Reunion, which is their garrison, and there are about five hundred soldiers, which is a position of real power. Yan En replied. Soon after Yan En received the information from No. 2, he had a brief understanding.

"This is an opportunity for Xinghua to take control of the troops of Reunion, and we cannot miss it. Yi Xingchen stood up and walked back and forth a few times, the army is different from the security company, and it is obviously beneficial to Xinghua to control an army. Yi Xingchen thought for a moment and continued: "Let No. 2 send back the information of his competitors and the difficulties he encountered in running for the position of battalion commander. ”

When Yan En heard this, he immediately took out a piece of paper, handed it to Yi Xingchen, and said, "This is the information sent back by No. 2, and some of the information is recorded on it. ”

Yi Xingchen took a look, and it simply listed the two candidates for battalion commander, as well as the difficulties encountered by Lurker No. 2. Apparently, the number two has done some simple work. Yi Xingchen carefully watched the above content, and after thinking about it, he found that the strength of these two competitors was not weak. Number two can be said to have little chance. Compared to Lurker 2, they are senior enough, and they are not unconnected in the military, and one of them is a close confidant of the Minister of Defense. Under normal circumstances, there is no way for No. 2 to compete. Therefore, No. 2 wanted to turn to the power of Xinghua Kingdom.

Yi Xingchen thought carefully for a while, and made up his mind to fully support No. 2 and compete for the position of garrison battalion commander of the Reunion City Garrison Command. (To be continued......)
