Seeing Jindeman's sincere consultation, Shi Bufan also understood that Jindeman really wants to be an excellent king and an excellent queen now. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 As the head of a country, he must not only understand domestic affairs, but also understand foreign affairs. Especially when the strength is not active, it is more important to pay attention to diplomacy.

There is a famous saying in international relations, that is, between great powers and great powers, diplomacy is diplomacy. And between big and small countries, strength is diplomacy. But between small and large countries, diplomacy is power. Adopting different foreign strategies under different situations at home and in the world can safeguard national security to a great extent and even develop strength from it. Almost many powerful countries have also developed from pretending to be grandchildren, if you don't know how to pretend to be grandchildren, then there will be no day when you will be an uncle.

In a country, especially a weak country like Silla, diplomacy is often more important than domestic affairs. Because their external pressure was too great, Goguryeo in the north and Baekje in the west would also take the initiative to attack them, so they were under great pressure. They urgently need Datang to help them share the pressure, so now Shi Bufan is giving him a lecture, so that he has to pay attention to it.

"I teased you just now, you should take the initiative to oppose it, or even fight back. Although a small country should be tolerant, it does not mean that it can make unprincipled concessions. Because once there is no way to retreat, then you must fight back in the end. Don't die in silence, just explode in silence. But as a nation, it is not qualified to die in silence. ”

"No matter how weak a country is, it still has its own national character. A country's national dignity is inviolable, and although a country is small, it must not lose its national dignity. Once there is no national character, then there is no need for the country to exist. I was so frivolous to you just now, then you should just slap me in the face, and then defend your Silla national dignity! Shi Bufan said.

"But...... Didn't you say you had to put up with it? This is just a personal honor, so why bother? Kindman asked.

Shi Bufan said again: "No, you are wrong, this is not a personal honor or disgrace." Because your current identity is the prince of Silla, and you are the only heir of Silla. Even you were an envoy from Silla to my Tang Dynasty, and of course this envoy was only later to make up the official credentials. But when an envoy is outside, he represents the image of a country and the national character of a country. If a messenger can allow people to be molested without getting angry, then the country is looked down upon. ”

"Don't think that the weakness you think will make people look down on you, and the weakness you think will only make people look down on you more, especially if you are the prince and the messenger. Weakness does not bring sympathy, but brings greater humiliation. Surviving in humiliation will not lead to true peace. ”

"Humiliation by weakness is not to be expected to be sympathetic, but it will only bring greater humiliation."

Shi Bufan knows that a weak country must be compromised, but it is absolutely impossible to seek satisfaction without a bottom line. Because the country has a national character, once you make compromises without a bottom line, the enemy will not only not sympathize with you, but will look down on you even more.

If you blindly seek perfection, you will end up with destruction. On the contrary, if at an important time, in the case of safeguarding your core interests, not only can you not compromise and seek perfection, but even fight to the death, so that even your enemies will look down on you and will not continue to bully you unscrupulously.

The list of such examples is simply endless. If you want to talk about China, then the Qing Dynasty was not a reluctance to steal peace, but a more and more serious humiliation. And after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a direct war to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and almost one country challenged the entire United Nations, which completely shocked those countries, and from then on they all knew that the country in the East had stood up again. Although it is still backward, perhaps the science and technology are underdeveloped, and the industry is not complete, but it has a national character and the spirit of the bright sword to safeguard the dignity of the country, which is more important than anything else.

"Back then, when we were in China, Tang Ju would rather bleed five steps in front of King Qin, and made a desperate gesture of never being wronged. In safeguarding core interests and national character, we absolutely cannot compromise on the whole. So Tang Ju used his courage and desperate spirit to make the King of Qin have to give up his plan, and Tang Ju kept the country for his lord. Therefore, no matter how weak a country is, it must have its own national character and the spirit of the bright sword to safeguard the dignity of its own country. ”

"When I treated you so contemptuously just now, I was not insulting you personally, but insulting Silla. Therefore, you should directly slap in the face, so that it can be regarded as the most effective way to maintain the national character of Silla and also not make a big deal out of it. ”

Jindeman heard Shi Bufan's careful introduction, and then he realized that although the country is weak, it cannot be completely compromised, but must have a bottom line. No matter how weak a country is, it is still a country, and a country must have its own national character, and if it has its own national character, then the country actually has the need to exist.

Shi Bufan introduced it like this, in fact, he also wanted to tell this Jindeman and tell her the way to be a king. If a king is unable to maintain the dignity of his own country, how will his people think of him? A leader who is unable to maintain his country's national dignity will inevitably face the result of being pulled down in the end.

"Shi Langzhong, why don't you repeat the action just now and see if I have learned it?" Jindeman asked with a deliberate smile.

"Princess Kindman, it's good that I took advantage of it once, I don't think you'll make the same mistake in the same place, especially since I'm here to tell you!" Shi Bufan replied.

"Hahahaha, Shi Langzhong, you are really an interesting man! But I have to admit your affection, this time you taught me, and I must be grateful. However, I do need the help of the Tang Dynasty, and now my Silla is not only facing the threat of the Goguryeo people in the north, but also the threat and provocation of Baekje in the west. If the Goguryeo people go south, then we in Silla will probably face a catastrophe! Therefore, I also ask Datang to help contain Goguryeo, so that we can make Silla stable, and then we can serve Datang loyally! Kindman said.

Shi Bufan said indifferently: "If I were the king of Goguryeo, I would not go south to fight you Silla." Because the current situation is very good, there is no need for the Goguryeo people to ask for trouble and destroy you Silla. If Goguryeo really wants to destroy Silla, then don't say that you have one Silla, even ten Silla will be in vain. ”

"Oh? Why? Kindman asked.

Shi Bufan replied: "Because of the destruction of your Silla, who will benefit the most?" Not Goguryeo, but Baekje! In the same way, although Baekje is constantly provoking you, they are very aware of the truth of the death of the lips and the cold of the teeth, the death of the rabbit and the death of the fox. Baekje and Silla are not necessarily opponents of Goguryeo, and there are special reasons why Baekje and Silla have survived until now. “

That is also the strategic goal of Goguryeo, their strategic goal is to open up to the southwest, and the southwest of the Goguryeo people, that is, our north. Of course, because of the encroachment on too much land in our Central Plains before, coupled with the continuous attacks of Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui on Goguryeo, the pressure on the north of Goguryeo was very huge. They have placed most of their forces in the north, and they cannot be drawn to the south to fight you. ”

"Because our Central Plains involve Goguryeo's defense forces, they can't destroy you."

"And the situation in the south is also a little delicate, if Goguryeo destroys your Silla, then the last Baekje will also be sad and sad. The Baekje Society deeply feels that your Silla today is also their Baekje tomorrow. At that time, Baekje was forced to my side of the Tang Dynasty. You Silla all know how to ask me Datang for help, so they Baekje are not absolute fools, and they will also ask me Datang for help if they are really in a hurry. At that time, the southern part of Goguryeo became 'one voice'. There were originally two 'voices' of Baekje and Silla, but suddenly they became one voice. Although there may be a lot less strength, but it is more united, which is not good news for Goguryeo! “

"Therefore, the most appropriate way for Goguryeo is to keep you Baekje and Silla fighting each other, and then he will watch and sow discord between you there, and then ensure that there is no unified 'voice' in the south. Such a balanced strategy is the most advantageous for them in Goguryeo, and now Goguryeo is doing just that. ”

"So, it's not that Goguryeo doesn't want to destroy you, it's that the international situation makes them dare not destroy you. Once you are destroyed, Baekje will be forced to our side of the Central Plains, and there will be no internal friction in the south, and they will unite to deal with Goguryeo, so Goguryeo will not live in peace. This is also the international balance, from the Tang Dynasty to Goguryeo, and then to the Silla Baekje, all of them are affected by this international balance. ”

Kindman also seems to understand what this is all about, it turns out that there are so many Taoisms here, so Goguryeo does not dare to destroy Baekje and Silla, there are still these problems in this. It is not a simple matter for the international community to involve each other, to balance each other, and to affect the whole body.

It is indeed not easy to choose a thread to break the game from this chaotic situation.

Jindeman thought about the current situation on the peninsula, there is no way for Silla at the moment, and at present, Silla can only rely on Datang to help them get out of the predicament, if they can't solve these problems, then Silla is still under great pressure. The best way to solve this pressure is the support of the living Datang, which is also the best.

"Shi Langzhong, according to what you said, the enemy of the enemy is also a friend, then we Silla and Goguryeo are enemies, then we are naturally friends with the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty was built on the ruins of the Great Sui, and even in the same vein. naturally inherited the hatred of the Great Sui and Goguryeo, so the contradiction between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo is irreconcilable, I think Langzhong shouldn't deny it at this time, right? ”

"Therefore, the alliance between us Silla and Datang will fight against Goguryeo together, so that it will benefit us and do no harm. Even if we follow the rules, I think we have a common enemy, so naturally we have to fight Goguryeo together. Not only do we have no direct conflicts of interest, but we even have common enemies. Goguryeo is not extinguished, and the blood feud of the Chinese children of the Tang Dynasty as deep as the vast ocean will not be repaid. And Goguryeo is immortal, and my Silla is like a sword hanging over my head at any time, and it may fall at any time. Therefore, Datang and Silla have a deep foundation of cooperation. ”

"I think the cooperation between Datang and Silla is a combination of two benefits, and a division of two harms. When the time comes, we will attack Goguryeo in the north with the Tang Dynasty, and although we Silla dare not say that we are strong, we can contain a large number of Goguryeo troops in the south, so that we can at least contain more than 100,000 Goguryeo troops. And once the north loses 100,000 troops, it is not an ordinary less. Goguryeo had a small population and a small army, and they relied entirely on the layers of defense built over hundreds of years to defend their defenses. Therefore, if there is one less soldier, the reduction is actually far more than just a soldier's combat ability, on the contrary, it will definitely be more. We have pinned down Goguryeo in the south, and the Tang Dynasty will destroy Goguryeo just around the corner! ”

Jindeman is here to imagine the future cooperation between Datang and Silla , which makes Jindeman very excited. It seems that the cooperation between Datang and Silla is very beautiful, and it can even be said that it is natural to cooperate, and if you don't cooperate, it will be a real waste.

Jindeman was immersed in beauty, as if his character and eloquence had suddenly improved a lot, and he thought that he could convince Shi Bufan. She believes that the examples she gave are of great benefit to Datang and Silla, so that both parties can consider it. Cooperation is beneficial to both parties without any harm.

Jindeman believes that the cooperation between the Tang Dynasty and Silla is almost certain, especially the cooperation between the two sides has great benefits, and it is almost inevitable that Goguryeo will be destroyed after cooperation.

However, Shi Bufan's words made Jindeman so frightened that his legs almost weakened.

"I think, why do we Datang have to cooperate with Silla, we can't cooperate with Baekje?" Shi Bufan asked.

Hearing this, Kinderman's face suddenly turned green, and he almost fell to the ground in fright. However, Jindeman finally held on, and then he was still very nervous and asked.

"Why? Why? Kindman shouted.

Jindeman almost went crazy, Shi Bufan's words completely frightened Jindeman, because Shi Bufan's words shocked Jindeman too much. If what Shi Bufan said is true, then the next big crisis for Silla Ke, maybe there will be a risk of destruction, Jindeman's brain became drenched in sweat, but this is a cold sweat.
