Chapter Seventy-Two: Winning the Weak and Small Countries Survive in the Cracks
Although the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each is different.
But the qualifications of the children of the dog emperor are not bad, and they can be literate and martial.
And those concubines are not outstanding.
Obviously, even if the dog emperor dragged their mother's legs in this regard, he would not drag them to the crotch.
The eldest sister has been exercising hard for many years, but she is always ridiculed as a waste.
He was even assessed as unable to practice martial arts, and the master who taught literature and political affairs deliberately made things difficult, and then said that he was not attentive and did not use his skills, and he was not the material for literary cultivation.
"Senior brother, are you right?"
Zhang Junyuan, who received such a big affirmation for the first time, couldn't help but doubt himself.
is even more worried that Liang Shenglan's expectations for her will be disappointed.
Zhang Junlin saw this.
A story I had heard in my previous life flashed through my mind.
The story of tethered cattle and horses.
The master will nail a wooden stake in the clearing.
Since childhood, a rope has been tied around the neck of cattle and horses.
The rope wasn't that strong, and the stake wasn't that strong.
But when I was a child, I couldn't break free from the cows and horses.
When I grew up, I was still imprisoned by my thoughts and could no longer break free from my psychological shackles.
Thereupon.
They have been cattle and horses since childhood.
Lifelong cattle and horses.
And the eldest sister with him.
was Zhang Chengqian and the people of the entire palace.
They were raised as cattle and horses.
"I ...... I haven't seen how other people cultivate, but I just think that your cultivation progress is not much slower than I was back then. β
Liang Shenglan picked at his brain.
As a hunter who has been in the mountains for more than ten years.
He really didn't know how to explain her talent to the princess.
But he was able to confirm one thing.
"Princess, your previous cultivation method was wrong, and the direction and strength of your qi movement were not right, and this needs to be changed slowly."
"Isn't that right?"
A tangled look appeared on Zhang Junyuan's face.
When she was a child.
The queen mother was busy fighting wars and dealing with state affairs.
These exercises were taught to her by her father and the emperor himself, and she said that she was taught by her mother.
Why is there a mistake?
"Eldest sister, you listen to Senior Brother Liang, he is the personal disciple of the queen mother, the emperor himself is not literate, and it is very likely that he can't understand the advanced set of exercises of the queen mother, and he will pass on the wrong kung fu to you."
Zhang Junlin saw that the eldest sister was not yet regarded as a "cow and horse".
Know that this matter has to be gradual.
Tell her the truth directly, I'm afraid it will be psychologically unbearable and lead to an accident.
Because the Dog Emperor did something sorry for their sister and brother.
Not just one, but more than one.
There are some things that can't be thought about.
And now.
It's not time to settle accounts with the Dog Emperor.
"Brother Huang, do you have something to do with me?"
Zhang Junyuan really agreed with his explanation.
He came over with a handkerchief and wiping his sweat.
Liang Shengxiao saw that there was no one around and was about to leave.
Zhang Junlin hurriedly retained.
"Senior brother, I also want to listen to your opinion on this matter that I talked about with my eldest sister."
"Me?"
Liang Shenglan pointed to the tip of his nose in disbelief.
He's a hunter.
Now he is the senior brother of the princess and the prince.
Other than that, he didn't say anything about national affairs.
He stayed in the mountains and just came out of the mountains, and he didn't even know how much the country of Nanyue was now, and he didn't know how much the world was.
"Then I'll listen."
Liang Shenglan did not intend to express an opinion.
Hit a clean stone and sit down.
stared at Zhang Junyuan's side face seriously.
Yes......
It's beautiful.
ββ¦β¦β
Also as a man.
Zhang Junlin could see at a glance that Liang Shenglan's feelings for his eldest sister were not ordinary.
Fortunately, the other party's eyes are just simple nostalgia and appreciation.
Although the eldest sister is naΓ―ve, she is not a delicate little white flower.
It doesn't make him worry too much.
"Eldest sister, although the deaths of Xiang Yuzhi and Xiang Hong can keep Jinling peaceful for a while, but when Western Chu and Da Ying finish the battle, Western Chu will send troops to South Vietnam regardless of victory or defeat."
Where you fall, you have to get up.
A weak small country in South Vietnam made the Western Chu State lose its generals and face twice.
Although there is a foil from the sky, South Vietnam does not have to withstand the crushing attack of the 400,000-strong army of Western Chu.
But Xiang Yu is said to have arrived from the capital of Wu Guoguo, which was affiliated with Western Chu.
When an overlord begins to clean up surrounding vassals.
Its determination to become bigger and stronger is already evident.
It shows that it is almost well prepared.
A small country like South Vietnam could be wiped out at any time.
"Your worries are not unreasonable, and that's why my father and the emperor ran faster when they heard about the assassins."
Mention of this.
Zhang Junyuan was annoyed and hated.
Although the military strength of South Vietnam was inferior to that of Western Chu, it was more tough in diplomacy.
Holding on to the annihilation of the country, it is also necessary to make Xichu unable to recover for ten years, and then unite with other hegemonic countries to knock on Xichu's words.
Even if the crisis of revenge and annihilation of the country cannot be completely avoided, at least there is room for maneuver.
But what did my father do?
Leave everything to her and the royal brother, and leave.
"Eldest sister, do you still have illusions about the emperor returning to Jinling?"
Zhang Junlin sneered.
"Don't have illusions about others, it's more reliable to be ready to fight."
"In order to fight this battle with Da Ying, Xichu first destroyed a vassal country, and then came to South Vietnam to grab grain and grass, obviously to compete with Da Ying."
Zhang Junlin relied on the information he had collected from Zhao Dan and the recent collection to sort out and analyze it for the eldest sister.
"I think this battle will last more than two years, at least a year and a half."
Although there are many nobles in Western Chu, the country is rich and the people are strong.
But they lacked cavalry.
Xiang Hong claimed to have entered Jinling with 100,000 iron cavalry, but in fact, he relied on elite troops to take the lead.
The real cavalry was only 20 percent, less than 20,000 men.
These can be regarded as the six percent of the Western Chu cavalry.
Western Chu wanted to occupy the territory of the Great Ying Kingdom, which made a fortune by raising horses, in order to prepare for the world and cultivate cavalry.
Raise horses before training.
And if the Great Ying Kingdom wants to fight this battle with Western Chu, it is nothing more than going south to occupy fertile fields and waterways and cultivate a naval army.
They have their own plans, and each of them is ready to dominate the world.
Uncle Xiao of Northern Qi deliberately sent diplomatic envoys to provoke disputes between the two countries, also to prevent the two countries from going east.
Occupy the vast arable land of the plains and the abundant mines.
So that the Northern Qi can sit on the profits of the fishermen at the same time, accumulate more capital to compete for the world.
South Vietnam wanted to survive in the cracks.
Only by taking advantage of the time of the great power to fight and strive to rise.
When Zhang Junlin made his point out.
Zhang Junyuan and Liang Shenglan were stunned.
"Eldest sister, senior brother, do you think I said something wrong?"
"Nope."
Zhang Junyuan replied with a solemn face.
"I think you're right, but I've never thought as far as you, brother."
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, according to what you said, at least three overlord countries are preparing to compete for hegemony in the world, and our Nanyue Kingdom is the fish and meat to be taken in their eyes? They can do whatever they want? β
The metaphor is cruel.
But it is indeed reality.
Zhang Junlin nodded.
Weak countries have no diplomacy.
and if you will destroy your kingdom, you will be destroyed.
Just like Xiang Yuzhi, the general of the town and the country, came to kill him, the prince of a country, in the name of revenge for killing his father.
How can it be?
Unconvinced to destroy the Western Chu State?
The Dog Emperor would like to use his death to flatter and proclaim himself a vassal to the Western Chu State.
"I thought it would be enough to keep Jinling and the people live and work in peace and contentment."
Zhang Junyuan's face gradually became a little ugly.
"It turns out that the monarch of a small country, is it so difficult to be a monarch?"
She looked at Zhang Junlin with concern.
Bite one's tongue.
