Chapter 615: War First!
In Li Yalin's view, now that the internal worries of the empire have been removed, the rest of the country naturally has to consider the problem of external troubles, those alien races who are invading the empire are a group of wolves that cannot be raised, and they must be beaten hard! It hurts! Only then will they know to be honest!
However, Li Yalin's proposition was not approved by the ministers, on the contrary, many civil servants did not take the invasion of foreign races in their eyes.
What they are advocating now is the rebuilding of the empire, such as vigorously developing the economy and agriculture, so that the country can be revitalized!
On this point, Li Yalin and those civil servants could not agree at all.
"Your Highness Yalin, in fact, we can ignore those alien races, my Yang Empire has a large number of people, as long as we send more generals and soldiers, we can quickly repel those invaders, so we don't need to think about war at all."
Over the millennia, the empire has been invaded by countless invasions, and because of this, most people have become accustomed to foreign invasions.
After all, every foreign invasion has never succeeded, at best it has plundered some of the finances and population, as soon as the Empire's army arrives, they will be driven away immediately, and the end of the war is only a matter of time.
In such a situation, what is the need to think about those troublesome wars?
War, as long as it is left to the generals, there is no need to worry too much about it.
Civilian officials are in charge of internal affairs, military generals are in charge of war, and the two sides perform their own duties, and a tacit understanding has long been formed.
Because of this, Wenchen had no interest in war or anything at all, they paid more attention to the internal affairs of the empire, and they themselves were thinking about it.
Li Yalin understands this and knows that there is nothing wrong with it, but the problem is that he has no time to waste on dealing with internal affairs, and how to successfully complete the task and repel the invaders is his top priority.
In this case, a contradiction arises.
The so-called public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, and the two sides insisted on their own words, and no one could convince anyone.
"You can ignore the issue of war, but in my opinion, this war is vital to the Empire!"
"Forget it, Minister Joly, I'll leave all the internal affairs to you for the time being, I want to have a good talk with General Budd."
The two sides argued for a long time, but the ministers were unwilling to give in, and Li Yalin could not give up the task, so there was no way to continue talking, so in the end, he simply stopped talking.
Anyway, you won't think about it, so it's a fart!
You want to develop the economy and rebuild the empire, right?
Then you just do it, I don't care!
But don't get involved in my affairs!
I have to fight this battle!
"Understood, Your Highness Yalin, please leave the matter of internal affairs to me."
Li Yalin's response actually made Minister Qiao Li very helpless, but compared with other civil officials, he understood Li Yalin's mood better, because the two had also communicated privately before.
From the bottom of his heart, Minister Jolly agrees with Li Yalin's idea, even if he doesn't think that those alien races can provoke any moths, but after all, the empire is being invaded, and if the invaders are not driven away, how can we rebuild the empire?
But the problem is that, due to the thousand-year-old tradition of the empire, the civilian collective is indeed a bit stubborn in terms of the idea of governing the country, and it is not so easy to convince those guys.
So there is no way, and now he can only follow what Li Yalin said, let him think about the war with the generals, and on his side, he will take over all government affairs.
"Your Highness! Think again! ”
"Your Highness! Please think carefully! ”
It is very natural that Li Yalin's decision attracted the opposition of the courtiers, but no matter how much they objected, it was useless, because Li Yalin didn't plan to pay attention to it at all.
After finishing the affairs of the court, just as Li Yalin said, he found General Bud and Estes, plus several other generals of the empire, and everyone got together and began to discuss the battle of the alien invasion.
After the war has been experienced so far, it has fallen into a stalemate, and the eastern alien race is entangled by the imperial navy, and the two sides have contacts with each other, and it is difficult to give up and separate, which is a relatively troublesome battlefield.
On the Western side, because they took over the background of the rebels, they were the most difficult of the four alien races, breaking through several cities in the empire along the way, seizing a lot of territory, and being the most difficult opponent.
As for the northern and southern aliens, to be reasonable, Li Yalin did not take them to heart.
The alien races in the north have been crippled by Estes, and although there is trouble again this time, as long as Estes appears, they will definitely be beaten into a sieve, and there is nothing to fear.
In the same way, the southern alien race had been completely suppressed by General Shake S's army long before Estes returned to the imperial capital, and victory or something was only a matter of time.
"So what we need to deal with the most at the moment is the two alien races in the east and the west, General Bude, I hope you can lead the troops to clear out the alien races in the east, I don't know what you think?"
"The alien races in the East are just chickens and dogs, but I can't leave the imperial capital, and I can't conquer the alien races in the East."
If he could, Li Yalin very much hoped that General Bude would personally lead the troops into battle, and if he went to conquer the alien races in the east, he would definitely be able to capture them with his hands and would not be effortless at all.
However, it is a pity that although his opinion was put forward, it was rejected by General Bude.
"I understand, then the war of the alien races in the east will be handed over to the navy for the time being, but if you can't make a move, General Bude, we must send more soldiers to support the navy, otherwise it will be difficult for the navy to resist for too long."
It must be said that General Bude is the best candidate to conquer the alien races in the East, but in the same way, his refusal was also expected by Li Yalin.
Although he saw it very clearly, General Bude had long been moved, because he was a general and it was impossible for him to refuse war, but unfortunately, he was stubborn in his thinking, and he was destined to form a binding on him.
He wants to stay in the imperial capital to protect the emperor's safety, and in his heart, this is his real duty, so even if he is asked to give up the war, he will not hesitate.
Therefore, it is simply impossible to let him leave the emperor and go to the East.
But because of this, it is also in the hands of Li Yalin!
"The alien races in the south have been suppressed by General Estes's troops, and on the side of the alien races in the north, I will send General Estes to take action in person, and I believe that General Estes will definitely be able to win."
"However, the east has sent troops, and there are wars in the south and north, and the empire's military resources are already seriously insufficient, so let's talk now, where can we draw more troops to repel the invaders from the west?"
