Aslan didn't speak—the other party was His Majesty the current Emperor. It is a great sin to belittle the monarch behind this. The other party is now the emperor's favorite son, and he said behind his back that his Lao Tzu was not good, even if he was known, it didn't matter, but he couldn't answer.

As for the Baekje Emperor in order to consolidate the centralized power, the implementation of the reduction of the domain, Aslan is still understandable, but this Baekje Emperor is a bit ruthless, cutting the domain and cutting the domain, directly crossing out the entire territory of the family from the territory, and then changing it to the imperial administrative state province, this is not forcing people to rebel.

During the reign of Baekje the Great, it was the most severe period in the Baiyun Empire's treatment of local lords, and if there was a slight problem out of line, the title and territory would be directly cut off.

"Before my father succeeded to the throne, the Baiyun Empire was also considered to be a rich country and a strong people, but after my father took the throne, he destroyed all this, and conquered the Principality of Hawke three times, if he could expand the territory, it would be fine, but three expeditions, laboring the people and losing money, but each time they returned in vain! Twenty years ago, my father organized a grassland expedition and slaughtered 200,000 young and strong people of the Donghu tribe, which aroused the anger and fear of other tribes in the East Meadow Grassland, and as a result, the major nomadic alien races in the East Meadow Grassland frequently disturbed the border. "Speaking of which. Prince Kira glanced at Aslan: "That expedition to the Eastern Meadow Grassland War. You know that, right?"

Aslan nodded.

Although that war took place twenty years ago, when Aslan did not come to this world, since he was reborn, in order to make up for the knowledge of this world, he still read a lot of history books and documents, and Aslan probably knew the place of the war.

The East Meadow Grassland is one of the four grasslands of the Zaft Continent, and the total area is said to be more than the sum of the territory of the three White Yun Empires, but fortunately, there are more than a dozen nomadic alien kingdoms on it, adjacent to the Inner Mongolia Dezhou in the eastern part of the White Yun Empire.

Before the Baekje Emperor came to power, although the Donghu tribe occasionally entered Inner Mongolia to plunder, but there were few large-scale wars, but since the East Meadow Grassland War, they completely formed a mortal enmity with the Donghu alien tribe, and in the winter of these years, the Donghu alien tribe would invade Inner Mongolia Dezhou on a large scale to launch plunder, and every time the soldiers and civilians of Inner Mongolia Dezhou had to suffer heavy casualties.

Hearing this, Aslan suddenly couldn't help but say: "It's a pity, if it was done once and for all..."

Prince Kira's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of strangeness, and he glanced at Aslan deeply: "What did you say?"

Aslan's face was cold, and he said coldly: "The war twenty years ago slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people on the other side. The feud has already been settled! In that case, why not. If you don't do it, you don't do it..."

He raised his hand, made a one-palm downward cutting gesture, and said lightly: "That vast grassland." It is true that the territory is three times that of the empire, but there are more nomadic alien kingdoms above! The war between them is even more crazy and cruel than ours, and at that time, how many people could there be in Donghu? Excluding the old, weak, women, and children, it is already the limit to be able to have 3 million sturdy men! With such a force, why not simply cut down the grass and eradicate the roots? Hmph... Since they have all killed hundreds of thousands, then millions of them are not something that cannot be done! Losing such a young and strong Donghu, even if the empire no longer makes a move, it will be annexed by other nomadic alien races in the East Meadow Grassland, and at the same time, it can also deter other nomadic alien races. ”

Prince Kira was surprised in his heart, where did this little boy in front of him come from to be so ruthless?

"You're right. Prince Kira smiled bitterly: "But back then, my father's close ministers were secretly bought by the Donghu alien race, and in the name of his life and wealth and heavy losses in the army, he actually persuaded his father to the emperor, and did not take advantage of the great victory to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but just plundered the entire Donghu alien clan and returned to the dynasty!"

Hearing this, Aslan couldn't help but faint, although there is no record of this Baekje Emperor in the imperial literature now, most of the rumors among the people are not very good.

Pro-villain, far virtuous minister. Ambition is great and talented, and it is a great achievement.

In short, Aslan has never heard a good word, even if the Rhine Ancient Canal was opened, and the north and south of the Dafang Empire were exchanged, but they were also branded by the people as a waste of money and labor, and there were several people in the administrative states of the empire who were oppressed too ruthlessly to launch a rebellion.

Twenty years have passed, and a regiment has spent a regiment every year. Raising those 20,000 people cost countless military spending... Hmph, but if the other party really wants to rebel, with the current imperial army, it is no longer able to launch an expedition, and the imperial capital army at that time has more than one million troops! Now there are less than 300,000 left. Twenty years have passed, and the vitality of the Donghu alien race has recovered, and this turmoil will break out, I'm afraid it will be sooner or later!" Prince Kira sneered: "But now, with national strength, it is impossible to fight the prairie again, even if it is very difficult to passively defend Inner Mongolia and Dezhou, once the imperial capital army is on a large-scale expedition, how many lords will be ready to move, once the imperial capital is empty, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not take advantage of the void." ”

"Long-term worries, East Meadow Grassland can only be regarded as long-term concerns, at least there has not been an outbreak now... But now the biggest problem. It is in the Principality of Hawke, this small maritime principality, a land of only one state and province! But the people there are extremely good at naval warfare, even if the empire doubles its strength, there is no chance of victory, but naval warfare is not something ordinary soldiers can afford, the previous emperor of the empire did not train the navy at all, and the current navy has only been trained in the past ten years, many soldiers can barely swim and not get seasick, what combat effectiveness does such a soldier have at sea. ”

Prince Kira frowned: "In such an expedition without any gains, at the cost of wasting the empire's national strength again and again, the empire's current finances have reached an extremely dangerous point! The empire has to maintain a garrison of nearly one million, and it also has to maintain the imperial capital army of more than 400,000 and the military expenditure of the naval expedition, all of which are superimposed, you may not know that for the sake of military spending and land problems, several bigwigs in the military department are almost gray hair.

Aslan Moran, he has a deep understanding of this Baekje Emperor.

It was a good thing to reduce the feudal domain for the sake of centralization, but it was not lawful, and it often caused the lords to rebel. The diplomatic methods are tough, and they often wage wars against foreign countries, but most of them are anticlimactic, have great achievements, and do some things that cost the people and money.

The opening of the Rhinegu Canal is a good thing, but it is impossible to say that all the major administrative states of the empire have built palaces of His Majesty the Emperor.
