"Your Majesty, although Datong has ceded the land of one county and ten towns in the south to our country, it has also ceded the six towns in the north to Su and Ao, and now the two countries have gradually taken over these towns and have bordered our country!"

"We kept Datong Kingdom in order to use it as a buffer zone, but Datong Country has good means and courage, and even directly said that the six northern towns were ceded out, so that my Dazheng Kingdom had to border with the two direct powers. In this way, the two countries have to contain at least the strength of our army's hundreds of thousands, which is simply hateful! ”

"Between Qi Chu? Hum! Snorted coldly, Zhao Yuan was naturally clear about Datongguo's plans. Anyway, they have done this more than once, Datong was a big power at its peak, but now it has been reduced to a small country with only three counties. Now, in order to survive, he gritted his teeth and ceded nearly half of the country's territory again.

However, the place where Kyoto is located in the Datong Kingdom is the county seat occupied when the Datong Kingdom was strong in the past. No matter how the Datong Kingdom is weakened and how the land is ceded, this county is always in hand.

You must know that the prosperity of the county town is far better than the county seat, and the tax of a county town is enough to be worth the sum of three or four county seats, or even higher. What's more, the county town has all kinds of influence, etc., as long as the county town is still in hand, it is not too painful for Datong to cede the land, but now it is an indisputable fact that the land area of Datong has shrunk by half.

He ceded half of the country's territory and went to the border between the two northern countries in Taisho Province. Although it hurts, it undoubtedly brings a respite to Datongguo. Under the confrontation of the three kingdoms, the power of Datong will have a pivotal position, and it can even become the straw that overwhelms the camel, and it will naturally become the existence that everyone in the three kingdoms is vying for.

At that time, Datong will not only be able to survive in the cracks, but will even have a way to drink some soup after these big countries, which is definitely a way to exchange land for vitality. Even if Taisho Kook knew the cause and effect, what could he do, it was not enough to win them over and prevent them from completely falling to the other half.

However, the only danger is that no matter who of these three countries becomes big and destroys the others, it will be a catastrophe for Datong. All this requires good control, and while traveling between the three countries to reap the benefits, it is also necessary to ensure the existence of one's own country.

"Your Majesty, the top priority now is to transfer troops to the north to support, with only the army under General Wu Zheng, I am afraid it will be difficult to support such a long defensive line, and it is even more difficult to guard against the forces of the Three Kingdoms at the same time!"

"Humph!" As soon as he heard this, Zhao Yuan's heart was even more angry, and anyone who was put in a position would not be in a good mood. Shaking his head, Zhao Yuan said lightly, "Since Datong Country has done this, let me cross the border with the other two countries, which means that the current Dashi Country is useless!" ”

"Your Majesty wants to use troops against Datong Country, this matter must not be allowed!"

"Why not, Datong has ceded half of the country's territory, and now the people's hearts are lost, and the soldiers have no heart to fight, it is the best time. If we don't take this opportunity to get rid of them completely, will we keep them to sway from side to side in the future? ”

"But Your Majesty, it takes time to move the army, logistics, food, grass, etc. Moreover, Datong has just signed a contract with China and ceded nearly one-third of its territory to China. Once I, Taisho Kook, tear up the contract and provoke a war, I am afraid that it will be shameful to the people of the world and greatly disadvantageous to my Taizheng Kingdom! ”

"You can't think of any other way, just find a suitable reason!" The big fist in this world is the last word, if the Thirteen Emperors of the Nine Domains do such a blatant thing to tear up the treaty, no one dares to accuse anything, but the Taizheng Kingdom does not have this strength, and there are too many people who dare to laugh at the Taizheng Kingdom.

In order to sign the contract, Datong paid a huge price for one-third of its territory. Not only that, in order to show sincerity, Datong has even withdrawn a lot of border garrisons. Facing the Taisho Kingdom with a posture of complete weakness, no matter how you look at it, the Datong Kingdom has shown enough sincerity.

This move is a real trick, enough to make Taisho Kook helpless. In the face of such a Datong country, once the Taizheng country makes a move to tear up the contract and provoke a war, it will immediately be labeled as a greedy country that cannot be trusted. No one wants to associate with such a country, and people of insight are even more reluctant to come to work in such a country, which is the importance of reputation and strength.

Taisho Kingdom is not a top power now, so you don't need to care about this. What Taisho Kook needs is to make great strides in development, and it will inevitably exchange and cooperate with other countries outside the country, and will also sign various contracts. Once labeled as greedy and arrogant, it will be extremely detrimental to the future development of Taisho Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, just wait for the right time. In the face of Datong's current performance, it is really not suitable for our country to provoke a war immediately. However, since Datong dares to do this, it will definitely not be willing to do so all the time. As long as they dare to reneg on the covenant and surrender to another country, we have enough reasons to take it! ”

"Wait, when will they gather the hearts of the people and reinvigorate the morale of the army, or will they wait for them to defect to other countries and get their support? At that time, it will not be as simple as it is today to conquer Datong again! ”

"Your Majesty"

"Alright, I got it!" Although he was very unwilling in his heart, Zhao Yuan knew what he should do, shook his head and said, "After going back, look carefully and see if you can find enough reasons to tear up this contract!" ”

"The minister understands that the minister will send people to Datong as soon as possible, and Datong will not be able to hold back and make radical moves. However, since Datongguo wants to be a turtle with a shrunken head, I am afraid that they will not accept our moves! ”

"Just do your best, no matter what, it won't be worse than now!"

Coming out of the military plane with a gloomy face, Zhao Yuan slowly calmed down his mood. At the beginning, he wanted to use Datong as a buffer zone and try to avoid bordering the northern countries of Datong, but this idea was really too simple.

I didn't expect Datong to have such great courage and directly cede the land of the six towns in the north. In this way, Taisho Kook was embarrassed, and his original plan was to be overturned. Now it is necessary not only to send troops to guard against Datong, but also to guard against the two countries of Su and Ao, which border with themselves, and the originally small number of troops will be greatly contained, and they will not even be able to provoke a big war in a short time.

To be able to do such a thing, its strategic vision and courage can be imagined, and its status in Datong is absolutely extraordinary, otherwise it would not be possible to persuade the whole country of Datong to agree to such conditions. It seems that there are no masters in the small Datong country, but he underestimates the heroes of the world, so he should be cautious in the future!

"Your Majesty, all the teachings have been completed!"

"Hmm!" All the way to the barracks, the people here stood in line early, waiting for Zhao Yuan's arrival. The students of the Second Academy of Civil and Military Affairs will be assigned official positions after graduation, and the teaching classes here will also graduate, and everyone here will be assigned to serve as teachers in the military camps in various places.

As the main responsibility of teaching these people, it is to teach ordinary sergeants to read and write, simple art of war and tactics, and Zhao Yuan's simple internal skills and mental methods for meritorious service to the entire army. Of course, they are also responsible for subtly transmitting loyalty and patriotism to the sergeants, as well as a little surveillance of the army.

There are nearly 100 people here, and their abilities are not very strong, but the most important thing is that they are innocent and loyal enough. Most of them were students who had participated in the scientific examination but failed to make the list, and after the setbacks of the imperial examination, Zhao Yuan gathered some of them together and formed a temporary teaching and training class.

After more than a year of training and observation, some people who are too poor in ability or have other thoughts have all been brushed off, and the team of more than 200 people in the past is now only the more than 100 people in front of them.

As a teacher in the army, Zhao Yuan does not need them to have too strong ability, let alone need them to meddle in the command of the army. As long as they know how to teach the most basic things, they can help the soldiers in the army solve basic problems. As for the higher-end and more difficult ones, the meritorious soldiers will naturally go to the martial arts academy to study, and they are not needed.

Their main responsibility is to educate the soldiers in their minds, and even to form eyeliners when necessary. Together with those students of the Martial Arts Academy, help Zhao Yuan firmly control the army of the whole country, and completely control all the unclear armies in various places as soon as possible!
