Linjiang drink, although the three of them asked for a private room, but there are no other superfluous dishes on the table, peanuts, braised pig's head, cold white meat, vegetarian three silks, a few, two pots of flower carving, from the eyes of the second child can be seen disdain for the three guests, the best location for such a port, is actually such a few dishes, if it is not for the two pots of flower carving is worth a lot of money, Xiao Er simply wants to invite them to sit in the lobby.

"Drunk dreaming of a good hometown, tears fell overnight. Wenxiu, does it feel good to be in a foreign land for a long time?" The man in the Xuanyi is naturally Liang Chongxin, who arrived first, and the relationship between him and Cui Wenxiu has gradually become a little estranged with the continuous expansion and expansion of the emperor's power, far less tacit than when they served in the Northwest Army, but the two still maintain mutual respect, but in terms of feelings, they gradually faded.

"Chongxin, didn't you just come back from the southwest, isn't it a foreign land?" Cui Wenxiu laughed, "I'm afraid that the Indian style is stronger than that in the southwest, right?"

"Hehe, it seems that Wenxiu is a little happy. Liang Chongxin also laughed, the long-term estrangement was dissolved at this moment, Mu Lige was also happy in his eyes, the estrangement of the relationship between the two was something that the original group of old brothers did not want to see, and now a considerable part of the important members of the emperor [***] side are from the so-called Liang and Cui families, and even he himself has been classified into the Liang family.

"The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as our own kennels, no matter how good the outside is, how can it be compared with my hometown?" Cui Wenxiu shook his head, "It's just that we are all soldiers, and it is our duty and glory to conquer the Quartet, even if there are some gains and losses, we can't take care of it." Chongxin, the situation in the southwest is stable, right?"

"Well, it's no big deal, in fact, the situation has calmed down after the end of the large-scale military operation, but Your Majesty is worried that the Western Peninsula Alliance and their allies will overreact, so the First Legion has been stationed for a while longer, and now the Eighth Legion of Cheng Dayou and the Fourth Legion of Wenna are still stationed there, I am returning to Yanjing alone, Your Majesty is in a hurry, so I have to come back alone. Liang Chongxin picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth and chewed.

"Well, I'm almost on my side, taking Bilja is equivalent to locking the door to the northwest frontier of the empire, and the Hansen Alliance is not afraid to make some small moves even if it has the heart. It's a pity that there is too much time on Nanmeli's side, if it weren't for His Majesty's forced pause, Nanmeli's side would have been able to go down in one go. Cui Wenxiu took a sip of wine with some pity and savored it.

"Wenxiu, don't you look at the current situation, Your Majesty is now anxious, you still want to take Nanmeli, isn't that forcing Xiolan and Delan to turn their faces with the empire? If the West Orlan and the Delan really turn against the Empire, not to mention the Merry side, if these two countries support and use practical actions to provoke a war in the southwest region of the Western Peninsula Alliance, I am afraid that the southwest side will not be at peace, just the two legions of Cheng Dayou and Wenna are afraid that it will be difficult to resist the offensive of the Night Rose, and the empire will have to send troops to reinforce it, and now that the alliance of the Liberians has been formed, the imperial strength has shown that it is insufficient, and even your Central Continent has withdrawn two legions, how can you dare to start another war?" Liang Chongxin smiled slightly, "Don't look at Your Majesty's calm appearance on the surface, in fact, he is more anxious than anyone else in his heart, it's just that he is stable." ”

"Boss Liang, are you so nervous? It seems that the Liberians are not completely ready to fight the Empire, right? We still have some time, with the national strength of the Empire, as long as we can drag the war on for a while, we are afraid that he Liberians will not succeed, and we will have to drag down his Liberian countries. Mu Lige was a little unimpressed.

"Chongxin, Lao Mu has some truth in what he said, fighting a war is not just about being stronger than anyone's military strength, but in the end it is necessary to compete for comprehensive national strength. In terms of comprehensive national strength, even the Liboa countries plus Maqi Khan plus the Triple Alliance are far inferior to the empire, if they really want to mobilize, the empire will not be afraid of anyone, according to the worst-case scenario, as long as it drags on for two years, I think he will have to drag the fat ones to the thin, and the thin ones will have to drag them to death, just how long can they survive with their little capital?" Cui Wenxiu also agreed with Mu Lige's opinion.

"Wenxiu, are you really unclear or are you pretending to be crazy and stupid? The empire looks like a middle heaven now, but you and I both know that there are also many problems within the empire, but they are all covered up by the beautiful aura of the empire, do you think that the Liberians and the Maqi Khans can't see this? The empire may be able to withstand small setbacks, but can the empire withstand big failures? The empire now lacks enough time to digest, but the external situation has forced the empire to take dangerous moves, and now the Liberians have come out, maybe the Macedhans will also jump out, and the empire must strangle them, otherwise once they succeed, then within the empire, hum, Luope, Western Regions, Meli, Indean, Southwest, and even the South China Sea, there may be major turmoil, and the empire can't withstand such a toss, so His Majesty will attach so much importance to this matter. Liang Chongxin said very secretly, but Cui Wenxiu and Mu Lige could understand the meaning of each other's words.

After being silent for a long time, Cui Wenxiu said slowly with a deep expression: "Although I don't quite agree with your opinion, I still have to admit that there is some truth in your words, but I don't think the situation will deteriorate to that extent, the Luope people can only rely on us now, otherwise they will be swallowed up by the Chidi and Anou people, the people of the Western Regions, hum, do they still have this chance? Even if the empire gives up for the time being, in time, it will still allow them to obediently prostrate under our feet. I don't know much about the situation in the southwest, and as for the South China Sea, the political and economic integration of the empire should be relatively successful in this region, and I don't think it will go that far. ”

Liang Chongxin is also carefully pondering Cui Wenxiu's words, after all, he can only judge and analyze the situation in the Central Continent by relying on the information he obtains, which is far less thorough than Cui Wenxiu, who is sitting in the Central Continent, and he has always respected Cui Wenxiu's views, but it does not mean that he blindly follows.

"Wenxiu, the mentality of the people is easily affected, the empire has not been under the rule of these regions for a long time, it can be said that the people in these areas have not been able to cultivate the centripetal force of the empire for more than ten or twenty years, so you can't expect them to have much good impression of the empire, the current appearance is just based on the economic benefits brought by the unification of the empire and the strong military deterrence of the empire, once the emperor [***] When things are unfavorable, the mentality of these people can easily change, and they will also think that maybe their life would be better without the empire, and no one wants to have a shackle on their heads, and those so-called national self-determination and self-reliance stem from this, even regardless of the actual situation of their own nation. ”

"We all know the existing military strength of the Liberya, especially in the northern region, once a large-scale war breaks out, our current strength will definitely be inferior, of course, provided that the Liberians unite and spare no effort to attack the empire, it remains to be seen whether they can do this, but as long as there is this possibility, we have to be guarded, not to mention that we also need to consider whether the Maqihans in the south will be involved, I heard from Your Majesty that the intelligence services have discovered that the envoy of the Maqihans has appeared in the Sislo Prime Minister's Mansion in Lesk, which is not a good sign。 ”

Nodding silently, Cui Wenxiu also has to admit the existence of this possible surname, as His Majesty the Emperor, he needs to consider more problems than army generals, once the foundation of the empire is shaken, as a branch area of the empire, there will definitely be turmoil first, and then affect the whole empire, he can accept this situation, as long as he wins in the end, but His Majesty the Emperor cannot, this is politics, and the different positions determine the different views, Liang Chongxin seems to have had an in-depth discussion with His Majesty the Emperor on this issue in the first two days。

"In this way, this battle has to be accepted by the empire, and it must be determined to win, and there can be no mistakes. Anyway, it's early and late, since you can't push it off, let's have a good time. Chongxin, what is Your Majesty going to do?" A familiar smile appeared on the corner of Cui Wenxiu's mouth, whenever he made up his mind to fight, he would always have this familiar smile, Liang Chongxin and Mu Lige were already familiar with it.

"It has not yet been finalized, originally His Majesty planned to deal with the Liboya people first, but it seems that the Macedhan people are now making changes, and according to the practice of first making it easier and then more difficult, the first battle to solve the Macedhans can also be carried out in advance. Liang Chongxin explained: "Maqi Khan is also carrying out large-scale infrastructure construction in China, and it may not be a good thing to drag it out. ”

"Well, if you want to do it as soon as possible, you must take advantage of the fact that the military arrangements of the four northern countries have not been completely completed, and cut off the cancer of the Macedhans to him, so that it can not only deter the Triple Alliance, but also prevent them from sliding to the other side. Cui Wenxiu also thinks that if the situation is forced, it is better to strike first, regardless of whether the Maqi Khans have other abnormal behaviors, anyway, the Maqi Khans occupied Jemero, Ankun, Yuejing and Ronnesia have not recognized since the beginning of the Tang River Empire, and now it is just looking for this opportunity to make trouble, especially when the relationship between the Li Sanshu of Yuejing and Sophia of the Jemero Kingdom is extraordinary and His Majesty the Emperor, the military action seems logical.
