Chapter 1030: Escapism cultivation is not easy
The prairie in April and May is truly a beautiful scenery, and there are boundless green and long grass everywhere, just like the green and vast ocean on land.
An army of thousands appeared on the grassland, and the sound of the hooves of the galloping horses broke the silence of the grassland, causing the birds and small beasts hiding in the grass to scatter in panic.
After discovering these cavalry, a Mongolian tribe in the distance was like a fried pot, the herdsmen packed their bags in panic and prepared to flee, and hundreds of young men from the tribe jumped on their horses and carried bows and arrows to meet them.
The hundreds of herdsmen were certainly no match for the Jin cavalry, they just wanted to buy some time with their lives and let their people escape a little farther.
Half an hour later, the green meadows were sprinkled with blood and corpses, and all the men of the Mongol tribe were killed, except for the young children and women, and the Jin cavalry took their horses and drove away with cattle, sheep, and captives......
Two years ago, after the end of the war between the Chinese Empire and the Jin State, the Jin people immediately launched a frenzied revenge against the Mongols and Tanguts who took advantage of the fire to loot.
After ceding most of the country's territory and the most important grain-producing areas, the Jin Kingdom finally negotiated the withdrawal of the empire and obtained a brief peace.
In order to raise enough food and grass, and also to take revenge on the Mongols and Tanguts, in addition to leaving the army to guard against the empire, the Jin State sent other troops to the two places to carry out retaliatory burning and looting.
The empire has adopted an attitude of sitting back and ignoring the chaotic war between the three forces, mainly to recuperate and strengthen domestic infrastructure, and has not started a war with foreign countries.
In the past two years, the major forces have sent a lot of fine works to the imperial capital Changsha, and they all tried their best to know one thing, that is, the physical state of the emperor Li Nan.
In fact, it is no wonder that countries are so concerned about this matter, because since the end of the team battle world, many major changes have taken place within the powerful Chinese Empire.
First of all, Spartacus, the commander of the First Army of the Royal Army, and Docot, the Minister of Justice of the Empire and the vice-president of the Royal Military Academy, these two important ministers passed away inexplicably.
The second is that the emperor Li Nan lives in a simple house and rarely shows up, which also makes many people wonder if the emperor, who has most of the world, has any physical pain.
The official account of the empire for the deaths of Spartacus and Docot is that they died of disease, but not many people believe this theory, and everyone prefers the version that the important minister was killed by the emperor because he wanted to seize power.
In fact, Li Nan did not stay in Changsha, the imperial capital, after he returned from the team battle world, he first accompanied the concubines and children for more than half a year, and then went to the newly built Yuanfu Wanning Palace in Maoshan.
Maoshan has been given to Mao Qingyan by Li Nanfeng, and this palace has been built for her.
And Li Nan came here because of the heavy casualties in the team battle world, so he learned from the pain and decided to put aside mundane things for the time being and concentrate on cultivation.
Now that the empire is large enough, the greatest enemy in the north, the Jin Kingdom, is in turmoil, and the Tibetan Tufan tribes, with the help of the Sakya faction, are infiltrating silently.
Li Nan walked out of the Wanshou Palace, stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the dense caves of Maoshan Mountain, the strange stones are numerous, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is charming, take a breath of fresh air, only feel refreshed physically and mentally, this is worthy of being the blessed land of Taoism.
Before Li Nan could enjoy the beautiful scenery for long, he saw several Royal Forest Army guards hurrying down the mountain.
Seeing their figures going up the mountain, Li Nan couldn't help but sigh quietly, although he had come to Maoshan to live in seclusion, he really couldn't escape this worldly triviality.
Reluctantly took the fold handed by the guard, Li Nan sat in the pavilion on the side of the mountain and carefully reviewed it.
The first piece was jointly written and presented by Yue Fei of the Southern Royal Seventh Army and Zhang Shuye of the Royal Eighth Army, and it was for the affairs of the Jinglong Golden Palace.
The empire's strategy towards the south has not changed, and after the capture of the Chenla Empire, the next plan of the two major armies in the south is to take the only remaining kingdoms of Jinglong Jindian and Bagan in the Indochina Peninsula.
After a two-year hiatus, the empire had completely absorbed and merged the newly occupied Chenla Empire, and had established roads between various towns and towns, strengthening the ties between all regions.
A large number of scouts were sent to Bagan and Jinglong Jindian Kingdom, and after a long period of reconnaissance and rebellion, they already had a lot of knowledge about the economic and military situation of the two countries.
Originally, Li Nan didn't take the small country in the south seriously, but when he saw the part about the head behind the scenes of the Jinglong Golden Palace, he was really shocked.
The Jinglong Golden Palace Kingdom now borders the empire on three sides, and the Bagan Kingdom on the west side, but it is such a small country that is not very vast, only owning the middle reaches of the Lancang River and the Mekong River, and has a population of 8 million, more than 9,000 war elephants, and more than 50,000 warriors.
The lord of this country, Paya Zhen, was originally the leader of the Dai tribe in the territory of Yinsheng Jiedu in Dali, and later established himself as the king here, taking advantage of the opportunity of the empire to do something to it, and expanding the territory to the surrounding areas, which formed such a large scale today.
According to the fold, the lord of the Jinglong Golden Palace, Pa Yazhen, is not the real master of this country, and the two people standing behind the scenes turned out to be Li Nan's old man.
When Li Nan attacked Dali that year, he escaped two people, one was Duan Zhengming, the emperor of Baoding, and the other was his younger brother Duan Zhengchun.
What people didn't expect was that these two remnants of the Dali royal family would actually flee to the Jinglong Golden Palace Kingdom, and use Paya Zhen as a cover to establish this powerful country.
If there were other people, it would be fine, but Li Nan and the Duan family had a lot of hatred, and these two people from the Duan family must not stay, so he did not hesitate to pick up the imperial pen on the table.
"Pugan Kingdom is fine, but Jinglong Jindian Kingdom must be exterminated, whether the Duan brothers live or die, the specific matters will be discussed by the two of you and the military!"
The second memo deals with the affairs of the kingdom of the Srivijaya Kingdom.
The Sriwijaya Kingdom's sphere of influence, which included much of the Malay Peninsula and the Sunda Islands, contained the waterways of the Strait of Malacca.
Although the Sriwijaya Kingdom has never dared to embarrass the Imperial merchant ships because it is afraid of the might of the Empire, there is still some inconvenience in the existence of such a country around the Empire, so the Cabinet has been studying ways to subdue it peacefully.
After two years of hard work, coupled with the constant coercion of the Imperial Royal Navy's East Sea Fleet in the vicinity, the king of the Srivijaya Kingdom finally decided to submit to the empire.
This is the case in this letter, written by Tyrion, the Secretary of State for the Interior, and Ludia, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
Although the king of the Srivijaya Kingdom, Tuobiluo, agreed to return to the empire, he still had one condition, that is, he needed the emperor Li Nan to personally attend his abdication ceremony, and to ensure the safety of his life and wealth in public.
