After Li Zhe said this, this group of ministers can be regarded as having a more accurate understanding of the enemy they are about to face.

Anyway, no matter what, there is still a war anyway.

Whether our family takes the initiative to bully others, or now others bully us, in the end, we have to fight.

Everyone was a little speechless, Tianzhu had fought too many battles in the past two years. The fight made people want to vomit a little.

Until now, the northern Persian satrapy and a group of princes are still fighting in the steppes of Central Asia.

Although the fighting over there was not fierce, it was also the Chagatai Khanate, which was famous in the past.

Who knows, there hasn't been a result yet, and someone here is going to hit the door again.

It's been like this in the past few years, either you fight me, or I fight you, in short, wherever there is controversy, there is war. There are absolutely no rules between countries, the naked law of the jungle.

Only the origin of this war surprised everyone, and those Europeans were really so confident.

In fact, Tianzhu really doesn't want to fight this war, at least he doesn't want to fight now.

Perhaps because of some kind of thinking inertia, in fact, the top and bottom of Tianzhu never thought of provoking the West. After all, the Tianzhu people came out of the Great Song Dynasty, even if they became stronger, the direction of attack they would really consider was always either the Hu people in the north, or they would fight back to the Great Song Dynasty and occupy the Central Plains.

The attraction of that piece of land in the Central Plains to the Song people cannot be measured by benefits.

No matter where any regime in the history of the Chinese nation originates or how far it develops, the ultimate direction always returns there.

It is only the dynasty that occupies the Central Plains that is truly Chinese orthodoxy.

This is almost the consensus of the Chinese nation.

So Tianzhu really never thought of looking at the West.

In the eyes of the Han people, it is just a corner of the world, just barbarians.

Even the construction of the Yihe Canal was purely for trade reasons.

Who knew that such a friendly gesture was misunderstood by others, which led to this war. This made Li Zhe and the Qin family, who proposed this project at the beginning, not know what to say.

This is something that everyone really didn't expect.

However, in any case, this war has already begun, and it is meaningless to say anything more, and once the war has begun, only the final victory or defeat will be meaningful.

The main battlefield of this war should undoubtedly be the coast of Egypt, Syria and Canaan, and the other is probably the side bordering Byzantium on land.

Li Zhe did not know the position of Byzantium in this war, but historically, Byzantium was the main participant in all major wars in the East and West, both in attack and invasion.

In the original history, Byzantium even destroyed the country because of this, which was extremely unlucky.

I don't know how this time, but I can't help it, who will let it stand at the intersection of the East and the West.

"Ma Zhong?"

"The minister is here."

Li Zhe thought about it for a long time, but still brought out the only general under his command. This time, Li Zhe is afraid that he will have to rely on him again.

Ma Zhong also knew what Li Zhe was calling himself out for again on such an occasion. It was obvious that he was going to go on another expedition.

Who made it Ma Zhong is the only commander under Li Zhe who can handle it now.

Relatively speaking, Shi Xiu, who was serving as the governor of the Persian side, was only barely able to cultivate it in Li Zhe's eyes. And even now, Li Zhe can't be sure that Shi Xiu really has such ability.

But Ma Zhong, who has always followed Li Zhe, has personally built an army that is very close to the modern military system in all aspects, so among these generals in Tianzhu now, if you want to ask who can best control the army under him except Li Zhe, it must be him Ma Zhong.

In this regard, it is the invincible Yang old general of the Weiyuan Army who is sitting in Manraga at this moment, and it is a little worse in Li Zhe's heart.

In this war, the Mediterranean side must be supported by the Qin family, but on the land Byzantine side, the imperial court cannot rely on the Qin family. It is impossible for the Qin family to have this kind of spare strength, so the imperial court is afraid that it will have to send an army to deal with it.

Looking at it again in this way, Jingxing's four years of Tianzhu are destined to be spent in the busyness of the war, and the scale of this mobilization is no smaller than that of the previous year.

Not to mention Ma Zhong's army, even the Tianfang Marquis Qin family's imperial court cannot let it support itself, in the direction of the Mediterranean, the imperial court may not have to personally send troops over, but logistics and ammunition support is still needed.

Moreover, in the first war last year, only some of the armies in Tianzhu were like the main force of the Japanese army to complete the redress, and the dependence on new ammunition and ordnance was not large, but this year, almost the entire army has completed the redressing, such as the princes of Tianfanghou who are close to the imperial court have also changed their outfits a lot, resulting in a great increase in dependence on logistics.

Therefore, the pressure on the imperial court this year is no less than last year.

The managers of the various departments of the Governor's Mansion who had been dragged down by a big war last year all shouted bitterly when they heard the news, when will this war be fought!

……………………………………

After the court, the Governor's Mansion recorded the military Hong Yanyan, and took a carriage outside the palace gate to turn back to his home.

Hong Yan's Hong family's ancestral hometown is Nan'an, Quanzhou, Fujian, and the ancestors of the Hong family went south from the Hai and Song dynasties.

The Hong family also died at sea before they were able to defect to the rule of the Hai Song Dynasty in the South Seas at that time. Then in the past hundred years, the Hong family, whose life has gradually improved, also came to Tianzhu with the expansion of the Hai Song Dynasty and became a member of King An.

At this time, although the Hong family is not a generational hairpin, it can be regarded as a scholarly heirloom, and Hong Yanyan's uncle Hong Qiyin was also a minister under the rule of King An, and the official served as the governor of Quanzhou. Of course, the current Hong family has regarded Hong Yanyan as the new leader of the Hong family's generation, and he who has followed the prince and the governor Li Zhe, at this young age, is already the record of the governor's mansion to participate in the military, and in the eyes of many people, he is already a figure in Li Zhe's future that is enough to be compared with the current Japanese military envoy Ma Zhong, and the future can be described as limitless.

As soon as Hong Yanyan returned home, his father Hong Qixi came to him, and when his eldest son finished washing, he stepped forward to ask for help.

"What, Cheng Wan also wants to serve before the army?"
