Chapter 38 Lobbying Zhong Dalu

They finally found Bai Ze after living on the island for half a month. The animal looks a bit like a unicorn, but it has no scales and green hair. What surprised Ba Niu the most was that it was able to speak.

After arriving at Shirasawa, they returned to the Akiyama Peninsula, at this time, the ship of Qapqar had not yet been repaired, and when they had repaired the ship and re-planned the route, they had already married Liu Yiyi, and a few days later, they were heading for Kyoto with a hundred and ten men and two boats. By the time they landed at the port of Jincheng in Dongduo and passed through Withered Leaf Town, Ba Niu had already bought the seeds, sent one of the boats back, leaving some people to guard the other boat, and he took Liu Xilie and Liu Yiyi to Dry Leaf Town, so Qapqar was a few days later than Ba Niu.

Although Ba Niu arrived relatively early, he did not take any action. It wasn't until Wang Lin, the messenger of Kangle, arrived, that he felt that the time was ripe, wrote a post about his late life, and handed it to Situ's mansion, but his name as the first warrior of Dongduo did not impress Zhong Dalu, but it was the mouth of the doorman who pried open with a few gold coins and helped him a lot.

"Current affairs are unpredictable, Shannan people are coming, Kangle people are also coming", when talking about the current situation, this big man who has just been politically defeated, said helplessly: "Shannan people obviously have bad intentions, Kangle people are just a delaying tactic, but both sides can't afford to offend, I really don't know what to do now"! This is what Zhong Dalu said to a few doormen and Ba Niu during a casual conversation after the two of them got acquainted.

Although those disciples also expressed their opinions, they obviously did not meet the wishes of this great Situ. He kept looking at Ba Niu, hoping that he would say what he thought, but in public, he could only turn a blind eye, and although he echoed others from time to time, he did not express his own opinion. It wasn't until after everyone dispersed and Zhong Dalu left for dinner that he spoke to him.

"Before the Shannan people came to the future, I thought that if Kangle could not be eliminated, the United Army would not be considered a victory, and there were two main reasons for this. First, recreation is a big country and a strong country. Although there are many countries in the Coalition Army, the only ones that can really organize a force that can compete with Kangle are Mingsha Mountain and Dongduo. And this balance of power can only be maintained in the current situation of recreation and civil strife, once the internal difficulty is calm, this balance of power will be broken, and the coalition army will be in a situation of defeat again, which is different from the original confrontation between Mingshashan and Kangle, it was only a small-scale confrontation between two countries, and the Kangle people did not use the national mobilization order, if they were all soldiers, the coalition army would inevitably collapse, so I advocated that they should be completely defeated and let them have no power to fight back. This is only one reason, and the other reason is because of the uniqueness of their people.

Kangle people are too selfish, in their cognition, with them, the world is valuable, Chu Yuxing once threatened: Without Kangle people, what do you want this world to do? -- This is not their impulsive and radical remarks, but the truest embodiment of their national character, which has always been self-centered and treats others as if they were mustards. This kind of thinking is undoubtedly the most dangerous, especially when they have the ultimate weapon in their hands. At that time, I deduced that if the Kangle people could not be completely eliminated in this war, then they might use their ultimate weapons on the battlefield and die with the world. For these two reasons, I do not approve of peace with the people of Kangle."

He glanced at Zhong Dalu with his eyes, and saw that he was extremely engrossed in listening, so he continued: "But now the situation is different, the Shannan people are here, which is also something I didn't expect." Shannan people are far away from us, but not too far, not far enough to be absolutely safe. The main thing is that it is too powerful, strong enough to annex the Kyushu continent. They have come neither out of good intentions nor out of outright malice, but their intentions, in my opinion, are because they feel that they themselves may be affected by the war when it gets out of control, and therefore they want to intervene while the situation is still under control. They are well aware of the need for such interference, so the conditions they put forward must be extremely generous. If I'm not mistaken, they must be providing the Coalition with weapons of territorial destruction, as well as the necessary protective weapons and cutting-edge scientific and technological talents to help us defeat and even destroy recreation."

Zhong Dalu nodded subconsciously, with a look of admiration in his eyes, which Ba Niu naturally saw in his eyes, but this did not affect his narrative.

"On the face of it, this is extremely beneficial to us. But the other way around, it's not. There are many ways to exterminate the well-being, but this is not the only way to do so. I say this for the same reason we said in the first place: the Combine is not strong enough. We use our own strength to destroy the Kangle people, so that their land can be planted, their ships can be used, and their people will also submit to us, once we use the weapons of the Shannan people to crusade in a slaughtering way, it will inevitably meet the most stubborn resistance, even if they are defeated, they will come back as avengers, so that the entire Kyushu continent will fall into a fragmented situation, and may always be in a state of turmoil, which no one wants to see, Even what most countries can't afford. The so-called justice and humanitarianism do not exist in state-level exchanges, and it is the rules that maintain relations between countries, and the basis of the rules is interests. My guess is that they are likely to start on two fronts - economic and military"!

He peeked at Zhong Dalu again, and when he saw his surprised expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly, so he continued: "The southern port of the Kyushu continent, although it is extremely far away from Shannan Country, is only separated by a water from its vassal country Jizhou Island, if the south gate is open to them after the war, their goods can be transported to the Central Plains through Jizhou Island in an endless stream, and what they lack can also be shipped out, this is one of them. Second, it is undoubtedly very important that their merchants can enter the Kyushu continent, whether for economic or political purposes. Third, after the opening of the South Gate, our West Coast will not be far away. After that, the whole hinterland will be open for them. -- This is an economic invasion.

On the military front, they will inevitably use trade maintenance as an excuse to set up permanent military bases in the waters off the mainland, thus forming an encirclement of us, of course, they do not want to annex us, which is also unrealistic. But after forming a siege against us, they can control our foreign trade and diplomacy, which is like setting up a wall for us to live in a prison, and if he gives us a nest to eat, we have to eat a nest, and they let us go out to let off steam, so that we can go out and let off steam, but we will never be released after completing our sentence."

"Genius, there is such a genius in the world"! Zhong Dalu couldn't help but praise it. In this young man of about twenty years old, he saw wisdom far beyond ordinary people.

"So, according to Childe, how to deal with this matter"? His humble attitude also shows the respect he has in his heart.

"For the sake of the present situation, since we cannot control the overall situation, it is better to maintain the status quo, I mean, to agree to establish diplomatic relations with recreation and to settle the question of war peacefully, but there must be a premise."

"What premise"?

"Establish a joint military alliance with Dongduo and Mingsha Mountain as the main body".

Zhong Dalu nodded: "An alliance must be established, if the Kangle people want to invade us, it will not be so easy." But what if we don't ally with the Shannan people, and the Kangle people form an alliance with them"?

"Lord Situ, but please rest assured, Chu Yuxing will definitely not form an alliance with them."

Looking at his confident appearance, Zhong Dalu was a little skeptical, let out a long "oh", and continued to ask: "How can I see it?"

"Because I don't need to!" Ba Niu smiled slightly and said, "My lord, please think about it, although Chu Yuxing is not a Ming Jun, his ability should not be underestimated. He thinks that everything in the world is determined by himself, how can he rely on the power of others? Of course, this is speculation, and I have another convincing reason. Kangle is now a big country, although it is not as good as Shannan, and it is not a particularly disparity in strength, they are both enemy countries, there is only cooperation, there is no coercion, their terms, Chu Yuxing is impossible to accept, this most important link can not be connected, how can they cooperate"?
