Merstal knew that Driftless was asking this on purpose to cooperate with him. He exclaimed with emotion, "What a clever islander!" and replied very respectfully, "Actually, we have known for a long time that the rulers of these kingdoms are more tentative. Moreover, they dare to so brazenly call for exchanges and exchanges, because they think that our local troops have not yet formed combat effectiveness because they have not yet formed combat effectiveness. In their opinion, against such a force, the elite troops of the kingdom they have should be able to win easily. In this way, it can not only give us a disadvantage, so that we can realize that they are not easy to bully, but also create an opportunity for the kingdom military to raise their eyebrows, so as to win the favor and loyalty of the military. This is a double win for them.

Since our accession to the Southwestern Continent, the kingdoms have been concerned about being stripped of their power because they have not yet shown a clear attitude of cooperating with us. Through this temptation, they can guess our true attitude towards them. In their minds, if they win, they can show their strength so that we can weigh the heavy price to be paid to overthrow their worldly rule. Even if we do turn our faces, because the events like festivals are held on the same day, it is very conducive to uniting all the forces that can be united. The simultaneous outbreak of conflict in various parts of the south-western continent can not only disrupt our various attempts to break up, but also play a tremendous role in mutual solidarity.

In short, the intention of the kingdoms is very clear, and that is to test the bottom line of our tolerance. ”

"Well, that makes sense. But according to what you say, if we go to war, won't we fall into the trap of these people? Why do you still think it's better to fight?" Although Piaowu's tone was full of doubts, from his calm and flat expression, it was not difficult to see that in fact, he had already understood the intentions of the two military geniuses in front of him.

"Didn't the owner of the island tell us that 'the plan will be calculated'? The rulers of all kingdoms, large and small, who want to cheat and cheat, are actually the most unstable factors in the entire southwest continent. Even now that they have sworn allegiance to us, it cannot be trusted. But now, we are not on a firm footing, and it is really not appropriate for us to go to war with them, who are very powerful. Otherwise, we would have killed them long ago.

Yes, they want to get to the bottom of us, but why don't we want to get to the bottom of them? So, in a sense, this tradition of exchange that emerged from the Church of Light is actually in the common interest of both sides. In such a situation, it is only natural that we should go with the flow.

After listening to the teachings of the island owner, we have always taken the pauper's route. Through layers of selection, those selected are absolute elites. Although their overall strength is now poor, the winning potential is unlimited. Only with great pressure can the maximum potential be unleashed. In the long run, such exchanges will speed up the growth of local garrisons.

Although the training period is relatively short, and the combat effectiveness of the local garrisons is not very high, because the members are all highly gifted people and are able to endure hardships and stand hard work, they have made remarkable progress in the two or three months of special training. Therefore, I believe that it will not be easy for the elite troops of the kingdoms to defeat them.

We want deterrence. In their eyes, if a group of improvised rabble, after just two or three months of training, can withstand the attack of the most elite troops of the kingdom for a long time, then these politicians who are bent on opportunistic shortcuts will never dare to act rashly again.

The final defeat should be inevitable. But doesn't the owner of the island often say that 'failure is the mother of success'? Failure at this time should be a timely rain. The members of the local garrisons were selected from among the thousands of people. Although the aristocracy, who regarded them as pariahs, did not think highly of them, after all, each of them was the winner of thousands of people, so self-esteem and complacency were extremely common. As the saying goes: an arrogant soldier will be defeated! (This is also a military idea often mentioned by Piaowu) In fact, the two of us have been worried about such bad feelings. It just so happens that we can take this opportunity to exchange ideas and sound the alarm bell for them. Make them aware of their shortcomings. This will definitely have a very positive and far-reaching impact on their down-to-earth practice in the future.

What's more, these poor people have been oppressed by the ruling class. It can be said that our local garrisons and the armies of the kingdoms represent two opposing classes (and he has also mentioned to them about the class theory of his own world). Therefore, this year's exchange is fundamentally different from that of previous years. We can quite see it as the first contest between the two hostile classes of the world today. When these poor strata, who have suffered heavy oppression, face the fierce counterattack of the ruling class, they deeply feel their own powerlessness to defeat a powerful enemy. I think that this kind of exchange will inevitably touch them from the depths of their souls. In order to keep their hard-won happiness, such a touch will inevitably be transformed into their persistent cultivation motivation.

It has a tremendous deterrent effect, a positive impact of guarding against arrogance and rashness, and a catalyst for continuous enhancement of strength...... It can be said that through such exchanges, it is a nutritious meal for us. What reason do we have to refuse such a good thing?"

In fact, Piao Wuxian had long expected that the two would agree, but what he didn't expect was that the two of them would be able to analyze the problem so deeply and thoroughly. Among them, there are some reasons that even he himself did not think of. It seems that these two not only have military leadership talents, but also have unique political vision that is difficult for ordinary people to have. Genius, real genius! It's a pity, if these two lived in the world before they crossed over, then they would definitely be able to become unbelievable politicians. No, even in this world, they can be great statesmen.

After Merstal finished speaking, when he saw the young island owner in front of him with a stunned and silent face, his heart was a little drumming. Because he didn't know what kind of reaction his words would elicit.

After seeing the confused expressions of the two opposites, Piao Wuxian immediately reacted and gave a thumbs up. "Wonderful! Wonderful!" At the critical moment, Piao Wuxian will never be stingy with his praise.
