"Cooperate with the State of Wei? Bai Gui wants to cooperate with the Wei State? When Qi Huan Gong heard this, his face changed on the spot with fright.

This is no joke! Wei was originally a military power, plus there was another genius military strategist General Pang Juan, plus the wealth and strength of Wei. If Baekyu cooperates with him again, it will be terrible!

"With Bai Gui's ability, since he can sell horses back on the prairie, he has a way to deal with the people on the prairie. Furthermore! I heard! Bai Gui returned to the steppe this time and helped the small nomads defeat the Yiqu Kingdom and unify the commerce of the nomads in the northwest. With the temper of the steppe people, you helped them, they gave you 10,000 horses, and that's not a trivial matter?

Lord? Isn't it? What are 10,000 horses for a steppe man? The grassland is so big, how many horses are on it? Isn't it? There are hundreds of thousands, millions of horses on the steppe! The grasslands in the north, plus the desert in the northwest, have countless horses and wild horses!

The wild horses on the prairie are even more powerful! If the wild horses are tamed, they will be thousands of miles away!

Again! With Bai Gui's ability, even if he is equipped with these 10,000 horses? What about equipping 10,000 cavalry? What if he had 10,000 cavalry? Isn't it?

With Bai Gui's ability, he is rich enough to rival the country! His financial resources can be compared with any other country. So! If Bai Gui cooperates with the Wei State, then! The consequences are unimaginable! ”

"This?" Qi Huan Gong said suspiciously: "Why? Bai Gui cooperated with Wei State? ”

"He's from Wei!"

"Bai Gui is from Wei, I know this! But? I also heard that Wei Jun was going to kill him. ”

"This is the old days! Lord! It used to be! Wei Jun wants to kill Bai Gui. But now! Maybe Wei Jun has come to his senses? Or! In order to calm things down, Bai Gui is willing to cooperate with Wei Jun? Isn't it? Bai Gui was in the Wei state, had two wives, and had three children. Maybe he didn't want to involve his children, and he didn't want Wei Jun to drive them out of Wei?

Or! Wei Jun promised him! What if they win the world and divide the world equally? Isn't it? Or! What is the king of one and the other of business, each taking what he needs? Isn't it? ”

"This?"

"Isn't this temptation enough?"

"This?"

"The reason why Bai Gui and Wei Jun fell out back then was that they wanted to dominate the world, and then govern the world. One thinks that it is not possible to use war to fight for the world, and must have the hearts and minds of the people. So! We must first win the hearts and minds of the people and give them a happy and peaceful life. Lord, you see? Isn't the purpose of the two of them the same? ”

"This?"

"Regardless of what happens to them in the future? Let's talk about the present! If the two of them join forces, they will destroy the other small vassal states first and strengthen themselves. And then! Isn't it possible to destroy other big vassal states again? ”

"This?"

"The current Baekyu is different from the Baekyu of the past! Now Baekyu! He basically ruled over the nomads of the north. On the surface! He is a monopoly on the business of the steppe, in fact! He was unifying the northern steppes in disguise.

Before! It was the Yiqu people who unified the north. And the Yiqu people use force, use brutal war, and kill. And now! Baekyu is the opposite! He used business. Commerce! You can rule the world just as well! ”

"Can business rule the world?" Qi Huan asked.

"Why not?" Impermanence explained: "Whether it is Yiqu in the northwest or the Hu people in the north, they are all the same, they need the necessities of life. And most crucially! They need food and medicine. Once a natural disaster strikes and they can't survive, they need help!

For example! When the insect plague on the grassland comes, the grass on the grassland is eaten by insects, and the cattle, sheep and horses have no grass to eat, and they will not be able to live. And also! The drought came, drought for several years in a row, there was no grass on the pastures, no grass for cattle, sheep and horses to eat, and they could not live. And also! The winter is long, snowing all the time, and the weather is freezing, which is also a disaster. And also! The plague came, and for the nomads of the north, it was also a catastrophe......

This time! If there is no merchant to help, solve the food problem for them! Provide them with medical care, and these grassland people will come to the Great Zhou to rob them. There is no way! In order to survive, they must snatch.

And in the old days, when Baekyu had not yet gone to the north, in history! Merchants in the past did not consider these things at all, including certain kings in history, nor did they not consider the life and death of these people.

What about the former merchants? When they saw that the northern nomads had come to their senses, they not only did not help, but they also fell into the ground. Outcome! The nomads, who have no way out, take the extreme way, that is, rob and make wars with the people of the surrounding land.

In the past, some kings were only concerned with their own enjoyment and the lives of their own people, and ignored the life and death of the disaster-stricken nomads in the north, and did not lend a helping hand. The result is the same! Cause the nomads to rebel or rob. There is no way! In order to survive, they had to rob ......

And now! Bai Gui gained the trust of the northern nomads. With his person, he basically unified the north.

The states of Qin, Zhongshan, Zhao and Yan in our Great Zhou were all bordered by northern nomads. Not to mention due north, because the weather in the north is too cold, the threat to our Great Zhou is not great. And what about the Northwest? For example! Yiqu! A small Yiqu country can fight against our Great Zhou. Why? ”

"Why?"

"Because! They are stronger than the people of Da Zhou! They are savage! They are ferocious! ”

"This?"

"So! If Bai Gui organized the steppe people and formed an army, he Bai Gui would command it. As you can imagine! That combat power is strong. Don't say too far, just talk about Zhou. Where was the former capital of the Zhou Dynasty? And where is the capital now? Isn't it?

Why did the Western Zhou become the Eastern Zhou?

It was because the Yiqu people defeated the Western Zhou Dynasty and drove Zhou Tianzi away! Lord! Isn't it? So! If Bai Gui cooperates with the Wei State, then! We, the vassal states, are in big trouble! Lord! ”

"It's horrible! It turns out that Baekyu is so terrible! Listening to the analysis of impermanence, Qi Huan Gong shuddered.

"If Bai Gui has the ambition to annex the world, he is only using the Wei State to dominate the ambition now? It's also a big hassle! Lord! Don't you want to ignore it? ”

"Bai Gui has ambitions to annex the world?"

"I'm not assuming? Lord? Isn't that the truth? Impermanence explained: "With Bai Gui's ability, he can start a war or control other people's wars in terms of food and materials. Isn't it? ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Just like what I just said! If he doesn't cooperate with a country and doesn't give you food through commercial channels, your country can't start a war! The same goes for it! If you don't get food through commercial channels, your country won't survive natural disasters! Why did those small vassal states perish? Lord? ”

"Why?"

"Because! They depend on others for everything! Natural and man-made disasters are coming, and their country will not be able to rely on itself, and if they rely on others, they will be manipulated! So! Once a natural or man-made disaster comes, this small vassal state is very close to destruction......"

"This?" When Qi Huan heard this, he couldn't stop nodding. I have to admit it! The demise of the small vassal states is related to this reason.

It is precisely for this reason that all princes and kings want to dominate and strengthen themselves. I want to have a larger land area and all kinds of resources. Otherwise! It's subject to others.
