Chapter 29: Alliances
There is a saying that a weak country has no diplomacy, and it is true that the daughter country is indeed inferior to the Honglie Empire in terms of national strength, but now the main problem is not this - Shi Cundao They don't look down on women at all.
When everyone heard that I had something to say, they all focused their eyes, and Shi Cundao smiled and said: "If it was before, Su Jing might have to weigh it in the name of the Sword God, but now that Goro is here, didn't the daughter country obediently send the Qingxuan Sword over?" The crowd burst into laughter.
Li Jian also smiled: "This is also considered that they have self-knowledge, what real skills can a little girl from Su Jing have, it is nothing more than a name, which is like Di Zai, first has the merit of killing Ma Zhiyuan, and then has the power to scare off the power of Tai Lang, and now only one person can resist the million-strong army of Hegis so that he can not advance the size of the land for more than a month, if the time comes, the world will definitely only know Shi Di Zai but not Su Jing." ”
I held my head and waved my hand vigorously and said, "Don't hold it, don't hold it-" My head was as big as a fight when I heard this kind of words, and I asked Shi Cundao: "So the meaning of grandpa is very clear?" ”
Shi Cun said: "The pros and cons are already very clear, isn't it self-evident how to do it?" ”
I slowly shook my head and said, "Not necessarily. ”
"Huh? What do you say not necessarily? ”
I said, "The pros and cons are not necessarily as simple as everyone analyzes. ”
Shi Cundao said with interest: "Then you can talk about it." He knew that I didn't know anything about military affairs, so he looked at me with a smile, just as my grandfather was in a good mood to listen to the whimsical nonsense of the ondol kids.
I said solemnly: "First of all, everyone still underestimated the strength of the daughter country, don't forget, the first time Hegis attacked the Federation Continent, and at the same time sent troops to Hong Lie and the daughter country, there is not much difference between the two lines of troops, the Eighteen Nations Alliance is a decoration in your words, so who is the strength of Hegis on the southern front of the Federation Continent eliminated?" That is to say, the daughter country has at least resisted a small half of Haggis's people, and this group of women is not so simple. ”
Shi Dong said: "It is precisely because the daughter country has run out of oil and lost its vitality in the last confrontation, so they are in a hurry to find a backer. ”
I said-for-tat: "What about us, don't we have a loss of vitality?" Even if the vitality is not hurt, what about morale? Was the collapse of the Right Route Army just because of Qin Yiwu's master troops? ”
Shi Dong's face changed, and he couldn't say a word.
Shi Cundao didn't expect me to be so excited, and said, "Gorou, what do you want to say?" ”
I said: "Just follow the words of the third uncle, my daughter's vitality is very damaged, and she is eager to find us Hong Lie as a backer, which is a good thing for us." ”
Shi Cun said: "Why do you say that? ”
I said, "Quite simply, this at least shows that the daughter country is determined to fight Haggis to the end, if you don't understand, you can think about it from another angle - if the daughter country gives up resistance and reaches an agreement with Haggis, what does it mean to us?" It means that from now on, our enemy country will have Hei Gisnan in the west and a daughter country, and we will suffer from the enemy on our backs and never have peace. I paused and said, "Take 10,000 steps back and say, if Hegis invades the daughter country on a large scale now, can we sit idly by?" Once the daughter country is lost, the whole world will have the ** of ten, then we will be surrounded in the territory of Hejis, and I don't need to say what the consequences are. ”
Shi Cundao understood my mind at this time, and said unexpectedly: "Is Gorou actually advocating an alliance with his daughter's country?" ”
I nodded, "The current situation is that we can barely balance the power with Hegis by forming an alliance with our daughter country, what else is there to hesitate about?" ”
Shi Cundao looked at the crowd: "What Gorou said may not be unreasonable, you can also speak freely if you have anything to say." ”
Shi Chi held his chin and glanced at me and said, "I can't see that Gorou still has such insight, it can be seen that you have been bothering about it a lot of time this time." ”
I smiled and said, "What are you yelling for, plus you and grandpa's edification, you are right to criticize you more." "Actually, I don't have any knowledge, but I was influenced by Su Jing's ears and eyes, and I stayed in my daughter's country for a while, and I listened to my mother and the empress talk about the situation every time, and I accumulated such a little common sense, and the main goal of my undercover work in the Honglie Empire this time is to promote the alliance between the two families, so I always think about this when I have nothing to do.
Shi Chi said: "But you have never led soldiers or been to your daughter's country before, why do you seem to have a soft spot for your daughter's national conditions, and you are partial in and out of your words, do you want to please Su Jing because she is beautiful?" Shi Chi's last sentence caused another burst of laughter, and I had to laugh and say, "Maybe it's okay." ”
Shi Chi said with a straight face: "We don't want to have anything to do with the daughter country, it's not that we are sinister and just want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, think about it, our Honglie Empire is in addition to the three states of Xinlifu, from the border to Yanjing There are thirteen states, some of these states are surrounded by mountains and some are surrounded by water, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack, although there are millions of people in Hejis, they must not rush forward in three or five years, no matter how long the supply is scarce, there is only a retreat, and the daughter country is located in the plain, easy to attack and difficult to defend, as soon as Hejis's cavalry crosses the Eighteen Nations Alliance, it is followed by the trend, When it is fast, it can reach a thousand miles, and if we want to help in the war, we can only send a large number of troops to fight for the daughter country, which will outweigh the losses in any case. ”
Stilwell added fuel and vinegar on the side: "Also, the daughter country stepped in at this time as if our Honglie Empire was going to rely on them, these girls showed their kindness at our unfavorable juncture, and showed their open-mindedness everywhere, wouldn't we be laughed at if we took this stubble?" Even if there is an alliance, I would rather say it on the day when my daughter's country is under the city. ”
I glanced at him and said, "Second brother, you should be the most supportive of the alliance here." ”
Stilwich said, "Why? ”
I said coldly: "Then next time you are surrounded again, you will have one more sword god to save you." ”
"You ......," Stilwell froze for a moment.
Shi Cun said: "It seems that Gorou has already made up the idea of forming an alliance with his daughter country, can you tell me the origin of your thoughts?" ”
I said: "I just think that if we want to win against Heggis, we should unite all the forces that can be united, our federal continent is larger than Hejis, and the population is more than Hejis, why are we being beaten passively everywhere, just because each has a ghost, our Honglie Empire looks down on the Eighteen Nations Alliance, the daughter country, and even more down on other small countries, so who else can be our ally?" While boasting about ourselves and feeling sorry for ourselves is our current accurate situation, far from saying that in China, our people are not as good as Hajis, but is this the only problem? If Hegis can dispatch more than 1,000 swordsmen, will we have fewer capable people than them? Why won't these people come out to help us? It is clear that we have not mobilized and prepared enough for this battle! Besides, have we been consistent with the outside world within the Hong Liejun? It's all my own family here, I'm straight to say, I can't write two historical words in one stroke, it's nothing to form a gang, and there are no cheap outsiders, but the current situation is that everyone is pulling up small groups, and there is a lack of communication between the three armies, and the father is leading people to rampage in my left army for a little personal matter......"
Shi Dong frowned and said, "Why are you talking about this again?" ”
I turned my head to see Stilwell, pointed at him and said, "And you, take the military order as bullshit, you are all out of the moth, and I wipe the butt, and instead of being grateful, I have been cold in exchange for saving you a few times." ”
Stilwell stiffened his neck and said, "I don't need you to save me in the future, it's a big deal that I'll wipe my neck if there's anything else!" ”
I spread my hands and said, "Look, so you are only allowed to have something, so can I count on you if I have something?" We're brothers! ”
Stilwell was stunned for a moment, and finally lowered his head.
Shi Cundao was puzzled: "Gorou seems to have a lot of resentment. ”
I puffed up and said: "Of course I have a grudge, what kind of life have I been these days, anyone who has something to look for me, which state is surrounded I have to go, I can fly, but don't you see that I am flying almost hairy?" What kind of sword god am I, I'm just a birdman, or a birdman who does coolies, and now it's hard for someone to help me, and you have to turn people away for the sake of the so-called men's face, you can't be so tired and stupid! ”
I crackled and complained and shocked everyone, because they knew that my contribution was irreplaceable, if it weren't for me, the three border states would have been lost, although there were thirteen states behind as a barrier, but you can't use these thirteen states as an excuse to really let Hejis's men and horses besiege the foot of the imperial city, and my role can't be measured by a simple defense of the city, my existence is related to the morale and morale of the Hong Lie Army, and I am supporting the bottom line that the entire Hong Lie Army will not collapse. So everyone was speechless for a moment and fell silent.
After a long time, Shi Cundao finally said slowly: "I only really understand Gorou's intentions now-Gorou, let me ask you, if I don't agree to form an alliance with my daughter country, will you have negative feelings." ”
So far, I have not hidden it at all: "Yes, I will be very unhappy, I will be very unhappy!" "At this moment, my heart is not only thinking about the task given to me by my mother, I understand very well that it is directly related to when this battle will be fought, if the two countries cooperate with Jincheng, plus the strength of me and Su Jing, it may not be difficult for Haggis to retreat, I don't want to really spend three and five years, even if I can't go back to modern times, I can't mediate this between them as a career, I still have my own things to do, and in the end I have no obligation to keep pretending to be a grandson to anyone, But it seems that I don't say anything to the point, Shi Cundao has not yet had such an awareness...... Shi Cundao was speechless for a long time, and suddenly frowned and asked Shi Diyang: "Diyang, why didn't you say a word today?" ”
After being drunk by Shi Cundao, Stilyang came back to his senses violently - he was indeed a little abnormal today, as if he had been sleepwalking, and saw Stilyan stammer: "I think...... There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with an alliance with the daughter country. ”
Shi Cundao's face was even heavier, he put his hands on the handsome case, looked at me with burning eyes, and finally made a difficult decision, and said word by word: "Then let's do it, let's form an alliance with the daughter country and break up the meeting!" ”
Just came back from the field, children's shoes forgive me, and I wish everyone a happy Singles' Day, if anyone feels unhappy, then I ...... I won't say anything, think about it, you can still take this opportunity to pretend to be a poor liar girl everywhere, if I do this, my wife will beat me. In fact, it is too much to whitewash the fighting......
