"I have good intentions for him, why can't he understand it?!"

"You immediately let the Winged Spirit convey my order and tell Ziqing, 'The national policy cannot be changed, and it will be implemented immediately, and there must be no mistakes. Also, he has until tomorrow night to get back to me. ”

"Yes. ”

“...... I'm going to rest, you go down. ”

"Yes, Prime Minister. ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

In 1037, the first year of Shazhou, the Mandala Stone Kingdom, which had ruled the vast land of Shahuazhou and more than 500 surrounding cities for more than 5,000 years, ushered in its most crisis-filled and turbulent era.

Not only the three major families that control the parliament and the church: the three clans of Long Zhao, Ghost Tilt, and Holmium Zhao are at odds all year round, and there is tension everywhere.

Moreover, the two countries of the adjacent snowy Ryoshi Province and the Fuchiki Lie Kingdom are becoming stronger and stronger, and they have a very strong relationship. A large-scale attack on the Mandala Stone Kingdom may be launched at any time.

All this made the ruling prime minister Shi Muyun exhausted and anxious.

Shi Muyun is the only son of King Yun, the thirty-fourth generation leader of the powerful Alpha Cloud Dragon Clan, and has now inherited the throne and become the thirty-fifth generation King Yun.

The Alpha Cloud Dragon Clan only exists in the Mandala Stone Country, although there are not many people, only about one-fifth of the three major families of the Congress, but they enjoy absolute authority in the Mandala Stone Country, and each clan has the power of a demigod, and can even dominate the elves and defeat the fierce beast (a huge beast that only exists in the Abyssal Wood Flame Country, belonging to the half-demon clan. )

The lifespan of the Alpha Cloud Dragon clan is generally around three hundred years, and the lifespan of the royal family is slightly longer, about three hundred and twenty to three hundred and fifty years. Among them, the first 100 years are equal to the process from infancy to youth, the second hundred years are equal to the middle and prime of ordinary people, and the last 100 years are equal to the period from middle age to old age.

However, the lifespan of the royal family is not necessarily limited to three hundred and fifty years, and there are occasional long-lived people, like Shi Muyun's father, who lived to be three hundred and ninety-four years old before dying.

Shi Muyun had been helping his father supervise the country when he was young, and he did not officially sit in the position of prime minister until he was more than 120 years old.

In fact, when Shi Muyun's father was seriously ill, Shi Muyun had actually mastered the command of the standing army, the demon department and the spirit department.

The Standing Army, the Demon Division, and the Spirit Department are the three main military forces of the Mandala Stone Kingdom:

The standing army is an army composed of ordinary humans, this team is the most numerous, mainly infantry and cavalry, mainly responsible for daily garrison work in peacetime, and the surplus personnel will be sent back to their families to work in agriculture and business, and then be called up when there is war.

The combat effectiveness of the standing army is average, and the lifespan is not long, only about one-third of that of the Yunlong clan. Once there is a war, most of the time they are used to ensure logistical support, and only when the front line is tight, they will go to the battlefield.

The number of the Demon and Spirit Clans was a little smaller than the standing army, but it was still about twice as large as the Yunlong Clan, who were the rulers.

In terms of strength, the Yunlong clan is the strongest, followed by the Demon Division, most of the Demon Divisions are power-type warriors, who are known for their physical skills, and their strength has a strong instantaneous explosiveness, and there is a tendency to destroy the withering and decaying when fighting.

Then it belongs to the spiritual department, which is also known as the dark department, although the physical strength is slightly inferior, but it has strong magical power and speed, and the body is flexible, and the battle is like a rabbit, making the enemy elusive.

The lifespan of the two tribes, the Demon and Spirit Tribes, can reach more than two hundred years.

In peacetime, the main job of the Demon Department is to guard the frontier, and the Spirit Department will become the shadow of the Cloud Dragon Clan, transmitting information or carrying out some shady instructions for them (that is, performing the work of the Shadow Division).

When war came, the Demon Department naturally bore the brunt of the vanguard, and the Spirit Department often made a detour behind enemy lines to carry out surprise attacks.

The Standing Army, the Demon Division, and the Spirit Department form an army system that can only be possessed by the Mandala Stone Country, and all of them are indispensable.

Because in the sandbar land, only the Mandala Stone Country has the three major races of humans, demonic beasts, and elves at the same time, and at the same time, there is also the protection of the Yunlong clan and the three major families in the center.

Other countries, such as the Snowy Ryoshi Province and the Fuchiki Lie Country, are single-race countries.

The Snowy Lingguo is a perennial ice and snowy country, and it is an elven country composed of rare Xuelan elves and Lingling beast spirits.

The Yuanmu Lie Kingdom is located in the vast Abyssal Forest, and most of the subjects are orcs, although there are many types of orcs, but the race is single, and it is an authentic Warcraft country.

For 5,000 years, these two countries have been suppressed by the Mandala Stone Kingdom because of their number and ethnic limitations, and they have been dependent on the Stone Kingdom.

However, in the last three hundred years, there have been unprecedented Ming monarchs in the Snow Ling Kingdom and the Yuanmu Lie Kingdom, and the country has been governed vigorously, and there is even a tendency to surpass the Mandala Stone Kingdom.

The year 1037 was even more volatile.

Ten years ago, Shi Muyun had promoted a human general to make him the Grand Governor of Eastern Shahuazhou, that is, the supreme governor of the entire Eastern Shi Kingdom. This official position has never been done by a human before.

This person's name is Zhang Ziqing, although his face is like a crown of jade, but he has the style of a general, he is smart and resourceful, and he has always won the respect of Prime Minister Shi Muyun.

Now due to the infighting of the three major families, Long Zhao, Ghost Tilt, and Holmium Zhao, the great prime minister Shi Muyun is anxious, so Shi Muyun made a major decision:

Temporarily put aside the affairs of the frontier, and reached a temporary peace agreement with the Snow Domain Ling Province and the Fuchiki Lie Kingdom, promising not to invade each other for a hundred years. Concentrate all your energy on the country, with the main policy of appeasing the three major families and calming down internal troubles.

However, Shi Muyun did not expect that the first person to stand up against this policy was Zhang Ziqing, who was his most important, and Zhang Ziqing tried his best to stop it before the foreign peace agreement was signed.

Less than a week after the signing of the peace agreement, Zhang Ziqing actually publicly issued an edict in the name of Dongsha Huazhou, ordering the people of the whole state to prepare for war and be on standby at any time. He also wrote to the Great Prime Minister again, hoping that the peace agreement could be unilaterally canceled, and that the Snow Domain Ling Kingdom and the Enmu Lie Kingdom would attack and destroy them before their national strength surpassed that of the Stone Kingdom.

He strongly showed a completely different ideological approach from Shi Muyun, and he was reckless. For this reason, Shi Muyun's repeated warnings were fruitless, and he had to reduce his power to ensure that he kept to himself.

The land and cities of the Mandala Stone Kingdom can be divided into four continents in general: the largest of them is the northern Bisha Continent, with 90 million subjects and one hundred and twenty-nine cities, many of which are excellent elves and magical beasts. The Governor of Bishazhou belongs to the demon clan and is called Adoro.

Located in the south is Liulizhou, with 76 million subjects and 111 cities, it is a continent where humans, demons, and spirits get along the most.

Located in the west is Duohe Mu Fengzhou, with 59 million subjects and ninety-eight cities, Duohe Mu Fengzhou has no demons, all of them are composed of humans and spirits, and they are seriously polarized, basically led by the spirit race, and humans can only become slaves and soldiers, as well as the lowest citizens.

The name of the chief governor of Duohe Mu Fengzhou is Mu Liubo, who belongs to the spirit clan, although he is a man, he is born with a graceful demeanor, bright eyes and bright teeth, and he has many suitors, including many noble princesses in the three major clans and the Yunlong clan. But Mu Liubo was born arrogant and couldn't see the sand, so he is still single.

As for Shahuazhou in the east, it has more than 60 million subjects and one hundred and seven cities, although the current governor is still Zhang Ziqing, but part of the military power has been cut by Shi Muyun, which is equivalent to ruling the land and people of Dongsha Huazhou together with the envoys sent by the central government.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhang Ziqing is still not giving up and is still waiting for an opportunity to move.
